The project will be completed in three components with the following elements:

Component 1: Design and engineering, permitting and construction administration, basis of design and data analysis, geotechnical services, survey engineering, design development (0 percent), final phasing analysis, conceptual design and alternative analysis, final permitting (NEPA), environmental assessment, engineering support during construction and review of domestic preference compliance, project inspections as required, coordinate issuance of certificate of occupancy, punch list, and final walkthrough.

Component 2: Phase I construction

Remove existing paving, surcharge the existing site to develop suitable load characteristics, partial rail construction for site workflow including an at-grade rail crossing on the entrance road to the warehouse.

Component 3: Phase II construction

Element 1: Approximately 200,000 SF warehouse.

Warehouse will be a high bay long span pre-engineered metal building with overhead doors, designed to meet the Florida Building Code and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.

Install building fire loop to the existing fire protection system and tank, install water and sewer services to the existing mains, install new primary loop feed and transformer, connect to the existing stormwater facility, install concrete slab on grade and knee walls including rebar, install dock levelers and warehouse sediment traps, install sub facilities including an office, mechanical room, electrical room, and multiple bathrooms.

Install electrical service and panels to support new warehouse functions utilizing the existing primary electrical feed with a new transformer, install new heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) components for the heated and cooled portions of the facility, install communication ducts to a new communication room.

Element 2: Rail spur

Remove existing rail as required to establish crossover, install new concrete grade crossing, extend the existing dock rail from east of the crossing with 115, 132, 136 American Railway Engineering and Maintenance of Way Association (AREM) rail; approximately 1,000 track feet, install two No. 8 turnouts to create a crossover.

Element 3: Terminal roadway improvements

Install road patch for stormwater crossing, install road patch for utility connections, install final concrete and asphalt connections to warehouse.
