 In general, the project consists of all labor, materials, tools, equipment, and incidentals necessary to remove and dispose of the old generators and install and commission permanent backup power generators at the Stuart Street and Leimert Tank Sites. The Stuart Street Site will require the demolition of an existing concrete pad and the installation of a new concrete pad. The District will supply the generators and a crane to move them from the delivery truck to the generator pads. It is recommended that bidders familiarize themselves with (1) the general, local, and site conditions that may affect the work; and (2) secure such additional or supplementary examinations, investigations, tests, studies and data concerning surface or subsurface conditions that may affect the work.
