"Repair Boilers & Aging Distribution Lines" is an authorized project currently constructing half the required scope. The consultants design requires construction of four distributed hot water boiler rooms and new hot water distribution piping. Only two of the hot water boiler rooms and associated piping could be constructed with available funds. A Phase II is required.

Brief Description/Justification:

"This Phase II project is required to complete the original work scope of the current project "Repair Boilers and Aging Distribution Lines". Consulting engineers during the programming design on the current project analyzed the existing coal fired central plant and steam distribution system. They recommended it be replaced with a hot water distribution system and a network of distributed gas fired boiler rooms. The current project is constructing two of the required four boiler rooms. After all four boiler rooms are constructed; the existing coal boiler system will be eliminated.

Phase II will construct two of the distributed boiler rooms and associated utility tunnel piping. That will serve approximately half the buildings on KSU campus north of US60.

Phase I is currently in construction to renovate two Boiler Rooms located in Bell Gym and Blazer Library. Six buildings are served by the first boiler room which is complete. Construction is ongoing for the second boiler room which serves five buildings.
