Work includes complete removal of the existing membrane and a partial tear-off of existing insulation. Construction will also include installation of new fall protection on the roof. Project work area access is restricted by the adjacency of the Powerhouse to the Kootenai River and the dam. Work also includes restrictions on the use of cranes, lifts and other equipment in the proximity of energized overhead transmission lines, transformers and transformer bus lines. Work consists of: DEMOLITION/DECONSTRUCTION: Total removal of existing single ply roofing membrane, walkway mats, roof flashing materials and joint coverings from the entire powerhouse, approximately 44,000 square feet of roof surface area.

Reapplication of elastomeric coating to concrete surfaces on the downstream parapet wall. FALL PROTECTION: Installation of a continuous Horizontal Lifeline (HLL) fall protection system composed of cable and anchor points along the length (approximately 570 lineal feet) of the top of the downstream parapet wall. Installation of a guardrail system along the length of the upstream edge of the Powerhouse roof and at open edges of the four lean-to structures on the upstream face of the Powerhouse. Guardrail system includes incorporation of electrical grounding and connection to existing Powerhouse grounding system. Installation of permanent, fixed ladders on each of the lean-to structures. The magnitude of construction is estimated to be between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. The resulting contract will be firm-fixed-price.
