Document Description
The proposed project provides for the replacement of the existing Central Utility Plant (CUP) and cogeneration facilities at LAX. The existing CUP provides heating and cooling for the terminals within the Central Terminal Area and generates electricity that is sold back to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP). The CUP-RP consists of the following components: replacement of the existing CUP and maintenance shop building, including replacement of the boilers and electrical co-generation equipment; replacement of existing cooling tower system; construction of an underground thermal energy storage tank at the site of the existing CUP; electrical upgrades to include a new electrical substation and a retrofit of the existing LADWP substation; installation of a new fire management system and a new fire life safety system; and replacement of the direct buried chilled water and hot water service lines in the CTA. The project includes the demolition of the existing CUP and associated ancillary facilities. In addition, the project includes the potential installation of an off-site recycled/reclaimed treatment system and water pipeline, and the possible use of blogs from digesters at the Hyperion Treatment Plan to augment the existing natural gas system at the CUP.
