The current Blue Line (BL) Traction Power Substation’s Pad Mounted Disconnect DC Switchgear, (eight (8)), was put into service 16 years ago on November 4, 2007. The Maintenance of Way (MOW) department has exhausted its in-house spare parts for this system, which has become obsolete. The pad-mounted disconnect DC switchgear for the BL is required for a mid-life refresh. MOW is upgrading and refreshing the Pad Mounted Disconnect DC Switchgear equipment for the BL.

Scope:

Vendor will provide nine (9) 2kA pad-mounted DC disconnect switch line-ups at the locations specified in the drawings. All disconnect switch line-ups shall be pre-assembled and include the following components:

Exterior operating handle (for manual operation, pad-lockable in both the open and closed positions)
2kA rated bolted pressure switch
Glastic standoff insulators
Mechanical lugs
500 MCM mechanical lugs
Switch control circuit boards
Copper bus to switches
Limit switch for remote indication
Solenoid interlock
“MAC” switch nameplate with switch serial number and rating
AC Relays

The Pad Mounted Disconnect DC Switchgear is designed for installation on a concrete pad outdoors. It allows for the isolation of a power circuit by physically disconnecting the conductors, functioning as a large, weatherproof switch that can be operated safely without exposing live parts to the environment.

multiple companies to provide General Contractor services for various Airport properties on an as needed basis.

Work performed under this contract will consist of storm water infrastructure repair and improvement projects within the city limits of Charlotte, NC.  Work will involve mobilization, earthwork, drainage structures, storm drain pipe systems, and channels. Work could also include working over, under, near, and around existing private utilities, asphalt paving, concrete flatwork, landscaping and any associated work required by the Engineer.  Other work may include structural foundation protection, storm water pipe lining, storm water pipe joint and structure repair, water and sewer (relocations, installations and adjustments).  Storm Water maintenance work may be located entirely within the street right-of-way or within storm drainage easements.

Project started due to surface depressions along roadway. City plans to remove and replace corrugated metal pipe with 83 linear feet (LF) of 8’ x 4’ reinforced concrete box culvert; remove and replace two headwalls; remove and replace 311 LF of 15″ reinforced concrete pipe (RCP); remove and replace 42 LF 24″ RCP; remove and replace 27 LF 18″ RCP; bank grading; and remove and replace 85 LF 10” ductile iron pipe of sewer.

The need for this construction project is to improve the storm drainage infrastructure (i.e. pipe systems and culverts) to reduce flooding and to enhance degraded stream reaches to reduce erosion and improve water quality.  This project is under review.  Location and project details will be provided after the review is complete.

The Gleneagles Project is primarily focused on replacing an existing CMP culvert near 3810 Gleneagles Road.  The existing culvert is 8.7’ high by 7.8’ wide and is being replaced with a 10’ wide and 7’ tall RCBC.  The culvert replacement is occurring to address aging infrastructure and to improve the reliability of infrastructure for the traveling public.  In support of this culvert replacement, we are dredging the downstream pond which is located on the Quail Hollow Country Club near the 15^th hole.  The dredging will remove sediment that has built up near the downstream end of the existing culvert and prevent sediment transport downstream which would negatively impact existing ponds and habitats.  In addition, we will be adding inlets and upgrading roadside drainage on Out-Of-Bounds Drive which has significant spread in larger storm events from road drainage.  The work on Out-Of-Bounds Drive will increase the safety of the traveling public using that roadway during rain events.
