The amount requested under this authorization is $13,858,000 of an anticipated total project cost of $61,692,000. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The public restrooms on Concourses B, C, and D, are old, outdated and overcrowded. When complete the new restrooms created by this project will improve the passenger experience by being brightly lit, featuring touch free faucets, soap dispensers and paper towel dispensers, and larger, more accessible stalls. This is a five-phase project. The first three phases are complete, Phase 4 restroom construction is nearing completion. This request is to construct the Phase 5 restrooms. Phase 5 will remodel the remaining public restrooms on Concourses B, C and D and will incorporate adult changing tables, nursing suite, service animal relief area and additional family restrooms. This project was recently awarded a $10,000,000 grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) — Airport Terminal Program (ATP). Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) have been used on past projects to reduce risk to operations impacts and construction schedule delays caused by potential labor disputes. This project is planning to use a project specific PLA which is awaiting approval by the FAA. Template revised January 10, 2019. COMMISSION AGENDA – Action Item No. _8e___ Page 2 of 5 Meeting Date: October 25, 2022 JUSTIFICATION The public restrooms on Concourse B, C, and D, in addition to being old, have limited air circulation and odors that have permeated the finishes that often result in passenger’s dissatisfaction with terminal restrooms. Enlarging, renovating, and building new restrooms will improve air circulation, reduce odors, and improve maintainability, accessibility, and passenger experience. This project, with its increase in restroom size and number of fixtures, further improves the passenger experience considering these new requirements. Diversity in Contracting This project is federally funded which requires the federal recipient to utilize U.S. Department of Transportation’s certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE) program. The project team is working with the Diversity in Contracting Department in establishing the Federal DBE goal. DETAILS Scope of Work The project scope for Restrooms Phase 5 includes the renovation of (5) existing sets of restrooms to reflect the latest Port Restroom Standards. The existing restrooms near Gates B3, C16, and D11 are to be renovated to multi-fixture gendered specific (Women’s / Men’s) restrooms with (2) adjacent single fixture (Family) restrooms. One of the single fixture restrooms at C16 will include an adult changing table. The D3 existing restrooms will be converted to a series of single fixture (Family) restrooms.
