Fort Drum – South Post Roads Fort Drum, New York Duration of Contract: 2011 - 2013 Erdman Anthony provided design and construction phase support services for the reconstruction and utility enhancements of 6,975 feet of existing streets in the 700, 800 and 900 area of the Fort Drum Military Base, Fort Drum, New York. The project included utility layout and design for electric distribution improvements and a new telecommunications system. These efforts included installation of underground conduit facilities, building connections and various appurtenances for both the electrical and telecommunication systems. These efforts were completed in order to move key facilities underground from their previous above ground locations. This utility design work posed a significant challenge since existing water, sanitary sewer, gas and other buried telecommunications infrastructure was present throughout the project limits. The electrical and telecommunications design also had to facilitate switch-over with little or no service interruptions. Detailed design profiles were prepared for the new buried tele-communications in order to assure compliance with US Army Installation Information Infrastructure Architecture (I3A). Extensive watermain layout, profile and details for new and relocated water distribution infrastructure was also completed. This effort included new hydrants and service connections to existing buildings. Work also included preparation of a report and application necessary for NYS Department of Health approval of the water improvement plans and specifications. The road reconstruction design provided full depth reconstruction of existing deteriorated concrete pavement with a multi-course asphalt pavement on a minimum 12-inch granular subbase material. The reconstruction also included the addition of sidewalks along 70% of the project, new signing and pavement markings; and a detailed maintenance and protection of traffic plan to maintain access to all the existing military facilities present in the project area, The scope of our design services included: Preparation of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, Construction staging / Maintenance and Protection of Traffic Plans, periodic site visits, responses to Request for information and reparation of an As-built record plan.
