The project consisted of
replacing five existing steam boilers in Central Energy Plant #2 with
five hot water generating boilers (converting the existing steam
heating to medium temperature hot water heating), replacing existing
steam boilers utilized for cooking in 8 kitchen/dining facilities on
base, and constructing a new 2,500 sf boiler room addition to provide
steam to the Montcreif Army Community Hospital. A three mile
underground distribution system consisting of 10" welded steel pipe in
a reinforced cast-in-place concrete trench was installed from Central
Energy Plant #2 to 40 different buildings on Base, including six
battalion sized barracks. David Boland, Inc. worked closely with the
Base personnel to bring the boilers on-line, route the trench, and
schedule tie-ins, outages, and road cuts.
