The Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP) anticipates the need for a firm-fixed-price construction contract for a project entitled Update Electrical � USP & SPC, at the United States Penitentiary (USP) Marion, located in Marion, Illinois. USP Marion is federally owned facility located at 4500 Prison Rd, Marion, IL 62959. The project consists of the following: Existing unit substations in Vaults 1 through 5 will be replaced with new unit substation equipment mounted on new concrete pads on grade outdoors. Primary circuitry will be extended to feed each substation from existing vacuum loop switchgear, except for unit substation 4. All electrical equipment in Vault 4 will be demolished. New unit substation 4 will incorporate primary switchgear to replace the functionality of the Vault 4 loop switch. Existing panelboards in Vault 4 required to remain in service will be replaced with new panelboards in other locations. Existing primary loop fault indicators in Vault 4 will be salvaged, reinstalled and re-wired at the new substation. Structural repairs will be made to vault 4, all openings sealed, and the vault will be backfilled. The existing transformer and switchboard feeding the �Old Camp� will be demolished and replaced with new unit substation equipment mounted on a new concrete pad on grade outdoors. Existing primary cables will be spliced within the existing transformer �shack� and extended to the new substation. The existing primary circuitry serving the �Training Center� from the �Old Camp� transformer building will be spliced and re-fed from a switch incorporated in the new substation. Each new unit substation will incorporate metering at the low-voltage main breaker and each feeder breaker. Metering data will be communicated to the existing facility management system via new wiring. The facility management system will be configured to read, display, and record new metering data. Feeder circuits from each new Substation 1 through 6 to the immediate downstream panelboards will be replaced with new. Numerous deteriorated and under-rated panelboards served from substations 1 through 6 will be replaced with new panelboards. Boxes of flush-mounted panelboards will be extended to facilitate new conduit connections. Existing wiring will be spliced and extended as necessary. Panelboards not indicated for replacement will be upgraded with new dedicated equipment ground buses where they don�t exist. Branch circuit equipment grounds and neutrals will be re-terminated on their proper buses. The Contractor will be responsible to inspect the interior of each panelboard to determine which require new ground buses. Existing branch circuitry and wiring devices serving the penitentiary kitchen equipment, penitentiary laundry equipment, and �Old Camp� kitchen equipment will be replaced with new. Selected existing deteriorated motor starters in the Powerhouse will be replaced with new starters having similar functionality.
