PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Construction Management services for the complete replacement of Lincoln Hospital’s existing 75,000-gallon emergency diesel generator fuel tank holding system with a three-tank system of comparable holding capacity. The replacement system is located in front of the emergency room entrance of Lincoln Hospital, one of the busiest trauma hospitals in New York City. The project involves extensive dewatering and support of excavation systems to maintain 24-hour access to the emergency department. The project also includes new distribution piping infrastructure throughout the facility. Upon completion and commissioning of the new fuel oil storage system, the existing system will be decommissioned, including all distribution piping.

The project requires a 50’ x 50’ x 30’ deep hole to be excavated in front of the emergency room entrance. Support of excavation systems requires installation via non-vibratory methods, given the proximity to the facility. The project will require 24/7 dewatering operations of 14’ of water elevation for 6 months.
