the estimate and made several value engineering suggestions to reduce the overall cost and timeframe of the project.

-As the General Contractor I was responsible for not only preparing an extensive submittal package for items associated with our work but was also responsible for reviewing and coordinating submittals for the various subcontracted trades and preparing overall project plans and in house quality control program.

Project Name: Three Separate Hydrant Fuel System Modifications - Miami, FL

Project Value: Between $750,000 and $2.0 Million Each.

General or Subcontractor: Subcontractor

Key Aspects of Project:

-Install double walled main line piping with hydrant laterals.

-Cold cutting and hot work to tie into existing piping

-Piping was carbon steel schedule 40 primary and schedule 10 carrier, main line piping was 14”/18” and laterals were 6”/8” in diameter. All piping was welded to API B31.3 code, installed below ground and received 100% radiographic inspection.

Self Performed:

- Excavation/backfill

- Mechanical piping and equipment installation, testing/startup/commissioning

Subcontracted:

- Radiographic inspection

Unique Aspects of Project:

- On the first project the owner decided to connect the loops on the North and South sides of one terminal AFTER construction had started to extend that terminal. As a result CEI had to install approximately 500 linear feet of pipe below the elevated floor of the new terminal. This required excavation of the trench with mini excavators, sliding the pipe in with rollers and then positioning 40’ sections. This project also involved going under several existing utilities resulting in excavation to -10.0 feet utilizing trench boxes and dewatering.

-Product submittals, piping layouts and flushing and security plans were required to be prepared for this project.

-Due to the need to maintain airport operations flushing of all projects had to be performed at night with a firm deadline to turn the system back over to facilitate departures. In addition work involved coordinating up to 6 tanker trucks with security escorts on and off of the airfield to return flushed fuel to the storage facility.

Project Name: NAS Boca Chica New Fuel Pump House and Truck Loading Stands – Key West, Florida

Project Value: Approximately $1.5 Million

General or Subcontractor: Subcontractor

- Demolish existing Pump House after new facilities were proven operational

-Piping from tank farm to inside of pump house was carbon steel (Schedule 40 and 80), 1/2" - 10" in diameter while piping at fillstands was stainless steel (Schedule 10 and 40) ” – 6” in diameter. All piping was above ground and welding was performed to API B31.3 code. All piping was above gound with 10%radiographic inspection.

Self Performed:

- Mechanical piping and equipment installation, testing/startup/commissioning

- Piping demolition to include lead based paint abatement

Subcontracted:

- Radiographic inspection

- Programmable Logic Controller in new pump house

Unique Aspects of Project:

-The facility is the “Southern Top Gun Training Facility” and has a near constant flow of fighter aircraft training in aerial maneuvers. As such, a great deal of phasing and coordination was required to execute the project without interrupting fueling operations. The new pump house and one fill stand were constructed, commissioned and allowed to run for 1 week before the second fillstand and old pump house were allowed to be decommissioned. A second commissioning was required after the additional fill stand was completed.

-An extensive list of product submittals for our work (well over 100 separate items) was required to for this project as well as a very detailed flushing and commissioning plan due to the phasing of the work and need to maintain operations.

Project Name: Three Separate Habitat Restorations at The Hole in The Doughnut – Everglades National Park, Florida

Project Value: Approximately $1.0 to 1.5 million per restoration effort

General or Subcontractor: General

Key Aspects of Project:

- Clear non-native Brazilian Pepper trees from a former agricultural area within The Park

- Remove approximately 1’ – 2’ of overburden soil down to cap rock then perform a “sweep” to remove as much soil as possible from the crevices in the rock.

-Each award was between 100 – 200 acres in size.

Self Performed:

- “Final Scrape” using motor graders after overburden was removed. This technique removed the final layer of soil over the cap rock.

-“Final Sweep” of the site using farm tractors with front mounted brushes to remove the last remaining soil.

Subcontracted:

- Mulching

- Loading of mulch/soils into offroad trucks and transportation to an onsite disposal mound

Unique Aspects of Project:

- The first project was an 8a sole source award based on a recommendation to the National Park Service from environmental work previously performed at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Glynco, GA. The second contract was an 8a competitive award with one base year and 4 consecutive years.

- An extensive project plan was required prior to mobilization that detailed all aspects of the project to ensure that natural areas of The Park were not impacted and the visitors to the area were not endangered.

- The site was very remote, requiring the use of satellite phones. Logistics for everything from crew mobilization to refueling of equipment and cleaning of toilet facilities were very unique. Extensive planning was required to ensure that the project progressed smoothly.

Project Name: Duke Energy - Natural Gas Metering & Regulatory Station - Pennsylvania

Project Value: Approximately $750,000.00 (labor only - material by owner)

General or Subcontractor: General

Key Aspects of Project:

-Construct a new metering station to regulate and account for natural gas delivered to a new natural gas fired power plant constructed by others.

-Piping was carbon steel schedule 40, 1" - 12" in diameter and welded to API 1104 code. Both above (10%) and below ground (100%) radiographic inspection was performed.

Unique Aspects of Project:

-Construction was performed in a heavily Unionized area of the country. Significant Union forces were already in place at the power plant leaving the Union Hall void of skilled craftsmen. In order to put welders and fitters on the job from an outside Union significant negotiation between Poling & Bacon, Duke Energy and the Power Plant Mechanical Contractor was required.
