Work within this area must be coordinated with the FAA Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) in advance. 1st Part - Security Fencing/Access Road 1. Cut all trees and brush, and grind stumps to facilitate future bush-hogging and security fence installation within the 15 foot access easement area. Trees, shrubs, and overgrowth shall be cleared 5 feet from the edge of the asphalt road within the lease area. Clean up ditch lines to ensure proper drainage and to maintain road (See Maps 3, 4, 5 and Pictures 9, 10, 12, 17, 18). Mulch all materials to pieces approximately 8 inches in length or less. 2. Remove the existing cattle gate and the chain link fence including fence posts near the entrance attached to the cattle gate, approximately 40 linear feet (LF) (Picture 4); the security fencing from the VOR gate to the communications building leaving the fence post on the north side of the access road, removing all the remaining posts, approximately 60 LF (Pictures 7, 8); and the chain link fence and posts along the VOR building gravel parking area, approximately 150 LF (Map 2 and Pictures 5, 6, 17, 18). 3. Install new site security fencing starting at the first post to the south of the main gate, the fencing shall traverse east 3 feet off of the edge of the access road to the wood deck platform located near the existing communications building, approximately 508 LF (Maps 2, 6 and Pictures 1, 2, 3, 9, 10). The security fencing shall be constructed in the following manner: i. Standard perimeter fencing will consist of a 7-foot, 9-gauge woven aluminum coated or galvanized steel wire fabric with mesh openings not larger than 2 inches per side and a 1-foot-high outward facing top guard consisting of 3 strands of galvanized barbed wire each consisting of 2 twisted 12-gauge wires with 4-point barbs spaced no more than 4 inches apart set at an outward angle of 45 degrees for a total of 8 feet. ii. Nine gauge tension wires will be used in new fence construction. They will be affixed with 9-gauge steel rings 4 inches from the top and bottom of the fence fabric at no more than 24 inches on center, and must be secured to each vertical post. iii. Fencing framing, including rails, braces, and line; terminal; and corner posts shall be Group IA, round steel pipe, Schedule 40. Line posts shall be 2.375 inches (60 mm) in diameter. End, Corner and Pull Post shall be 4.0 inches (102 mm) in diameter. 2 of 20 iv. Posts cannot be spaced more than 10 feet apart and must be embedded in concrete footing (3500 PSI) to a depth of not less than 3 feet to prevent shifting or sagging. v. Adjust existing gates to operate smoothly, easily, and quietly, free of binding, warp, excessive deflection, distortion, nonalignment, misplacement, disruption, or malfunction, throughout entire operational range. Confirm that latches and locks engage accurately and securely without forcing or binding. vi. Fence fabric must be attached to terminal posts with stretcher bars 0.25inches by 0.75 inches, which engage each fabric link. The stretcher bars must be held to the fence post with clamps placed within 4 inches of the top and bottom of the fence and will not be spaced more than 14 inches apart. Fence fabric must be attached to the exterior side of line posts using 9-gauge steel ties spaced not more than 14 inches apart, with ties mounted within 4 inchesof the top and bottom of the fabric. vii. Ties must be wrapped 360 degrees around posts and twisted a minimum of three turns and bent down on the protected side of the fence. The maximum acceptable gap under fencing from firm ground is 2 inches. Where perimeter fencing traverses a culvert, trough, ditch, or other opening greater than 96 square inches in area, fence construction will be extended to block the opening. The extension may consist of iron grills or other barriers, but must be approved prior to installation. 4. Hardware such as ties, hog rings, bolts, nuts, outriggers, braces, hinges, gate latches, drop rods, etc., will be installed so they cannot be easily removed, or used as a climbing aid from the exterior side of the fence. 5. Install reflective markers at the edge of the road to any inlets in the drainage ditch to mark edge of the road locations 6. Provide 200 lb. woven geotextile road stabilization and 4 inches of #57 crushed gravel from the end of the asphalt road at the main gate to the end of the lease area approximately 2,000 SF of road area (See Map 7 and Pictures 11, 13). 7.
