The Historic Renovation will primarily include replacement of HVAC historic finish material and architectural building elements, electrical upgrades, ceiling modifications necessary to provide a safe, energy efficient, healthy and secure environment for the tenants and public. This project requires the Border Station to stay operable through all business hours and throughout all construction phases. The facility to be renovated is within the County of San Diego, CA on the South East end of SR188. This Port has been occupied since the early 1900?s and has been in the planning phase for 13 years. The renovation proposal originated in 1988 and proposed under the Southern Border Initiative. A new access road has been added to provide CALTRANS with vehicle access adjacent to the GSA site to accommodate State Highway inspection operation on the plot of land located East of the GSA site. This is being accomplished through a cooperative agreement with the Federal Government and State Agency (CALTRANS). Gross area of the buildings is 60,108 square feet with exterior covered areas (canopies) of 26,250 sf. Total square footage is 86,358 sf. There are 35 parking spaces, 7 spaces of which belong to Federal employees and Government vehicles. There are no spaces for visitors. Six parking spaces located under the canopy are reserved for non-commercial vehicles for inspection purposes. No space is provided for commercial staging (trucks). Three spaces are allocated for commercial dock, and 15 spaces for Impound Lot. Inspection booths consist of 2-non-commercial vehicle booths (under canopy), 2 primary; and 2 commercial vehicle booths (under canopy) --- 1 entry, 1 exit. The tenants for the Border Station are United States Customs Service (USCS), Immigration Naturalization Service (INS), Food and Drug Administration (FDA) United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Offerors are hereby requested to contact GSA Contracting Officer Lilia West and register their interest in becoming the General Contractor for the project by February 28, 2003.
