GRAND CANYON – PARASHANT NATIONAL MONUMENT MOHAVE COUNTY, ARIZONA INSTALL FIRE SUPPRESSION AT DELLENBAUGH CABIN ADMIN SITE PARA – 209050 PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS NATIONAL PARK SERVICE May 21, 2026 -- 1 of 82 -- PARA 209050 Page 2 of 51 DIVISION 1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS SECTION 01110 SUMMARY OF WORK 1.1 EXISTING CONDITIONS The Project location is the Grand Canyon Parashant National Monument in Arizona. The project is located at the Dellenbaugh Cabins Admin Site. This project will bring structural fire protection to two National Park Service log cabins located at the Dellenbaugh Admin Site at Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument. The cabins have changed National Fire Protection Code (NFPA) occupancy codes from residential to lodging. Therefore, additional fire suppression components are required to bring the facility into compliance with applicable NFPA codes. This facility provides lodging and research, fire and law enforcement support facilities in a very remote location, 90 miles away from the closest firefighting facility, and will provide structure protection to the two cabins at the only National Park Service administrative facility in the monument. The Dellenbaugh Admin Site is an isolated, remote location requiring all food and fuel to be transported to the site and satellite phone or messenger is required. Sections of walls, flooring, and ceiling tile will be demoed and replaced to install systems. New wiring will be installed in ¾-inch conduit minimum, and in an effort to reuse existing wall and floor penetrations. New smoke sensors and heat sensors will be placed in proper spacing and fire alarm manual pull stations will be placed at door openings. New fire alarm control panel will be installed in a lockable steel enclosure. A complete and operational fire sprinkler system will be laid out, fabricated, installed, coordinated, tested, and placed into service with all piping, conduit, equipment, and related appurtenances. 1.2 GENERAL PROJECT STATEMENT A. The project requires construction services of installing a fire suppression system, fire alarm system, installing submersible pump in existing tank, installing a generator, wet pipe system, valves, piping, electrical control system, trenching, excavation and site restoration to original conditions.
