Document Description
The project proposes to remove, replace, or repair predator proof infrastructure at campsites within Sue-meg State Parks to provide safe food storage for park visitors. To replace approximately 120 wooden food lockers with metal, "predator proof" food lockers, designed to meet ADA compliance requirements, one of two installation methods (to be determined on-site) will be used. Work will:
• Use hand tools and/or mechanical gas-powered auger or backhoe-mounted auger to dig an approx. 12-inch-wide by 2-feet-deep hole;
• Use U-bolts to attach a 3.5-inch diameter pole to a locker, and place the post into the hole;
• Backfill around the post with concrete to secure; and
• covered with native soils (excavation spoils) and/or surrounding duff.
Or
• Hand excavate up to 2-inches to level the surface, or bring in fill to create a level the surface;
• Pour a 4-foot by 5-foot by 6-inch-deep slab of concrete; and
• Use four (4) bolts to secure the food locker to the concrete slab.
