Renovation of a transportation facility in Portland, Maine. Completed plans call for the renovation of a transportation facility.

The Scope of Work, Without Limiting the Generality Thereof, Consists of Furnishing All Labor, Materials, Equipment and Performing All Operations in Connections With Roofing Per Attached Specifications and Drawings. The Project area is located on the Roof of the terminal building next to an active commercial airline apron. While the roof is not part of the secured area, it is adjacent to the secured area therefore subject to heighted awareness of Portland Jetport, TSA and FAA security measures . Access to the roof area will be from within the terminal building through the stairway tower and mechanical room. Access is limited through this area for personnel and tools only and will require coordination with Jetport operations. Materials will require the use of a small crane/lift to place the roofing and associated materials on the roof repair area. This is expected to occur from the active commercial aircraft apron that is within the secured area of the airport. As a result, timing of materials delivery must be coordinated with Jetport Operations to avoid impacts to the commercial air carriers and operations. All vehicles must be escorted by Jetport personnel and subject to TSA, FAA, Jetport and Portland Police inspections.
