Award Amount: $4,964,956.00 Award Date: October 29, 2009 Vendor Name and Address:DUNS# 878635176MWH Constructors, Inc.370 Interlocken Blvd, Ste: 300Broomfield, CO 80021-8012 Project Description: American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) project to providse the design and construction of a new Visitor Center and Headquarters at the Coastal NC National Wildlife Refuge Facility. The Coastal NC NWRS Gateway Visitor Center and Headquarters facility will be approximately 17,840 SF and will be constructed on the north end of Roanoke Island, NC on a 35 acre parcel the Service purchased for this purpose. Due to the location, there is an extremely high potential for visitation. As a result, the expectation is that the new facility will serve as a "gateway" visitor center for all of the coastal North Carolina refuges and thus increase the visibility of and visitation to each of them. The new facility will be designed and constructed around the Service's standard large 2-Story Administration/Visitor Center plan. The modified plan will be further refined during the design phase. The Visitor Center will include a book store, exhibit space, an environmental education classroom, a multi-purpose room and exterior interpretive facilities. The Headquarters offices will be shared by approximately 30 Service employees. These personnel serve several Service programs including Alligator NWR, Pea Island NWR, Law Enforcement, Prescribed Fire, and the Ecological Services Red Wolf Recovery Team. The facility will allow the Service to vacate existing GSA leased space which will save over $120,000 annually. The facility will be LEED certified to the highest level practicable and will include water-saving elements i.e. rainwater harvesting, low-flow fixtures and grey water reuse. The facility will be very energy efficient and will reduce, by a minimum of 30%, the average energy costs of a building of its size. In addition, our goal is for at least 40% of the facilities energy needs to come from renewable energy sources.
