The objective of the Project is to renovate the Bishop Park Pool facility to extend the life and usefulness

of the facility located at 705 Sunset Ave, Athens, GA. Renovation will not require hazardous material

abatement prior to any construction activities. Materials at the building site have tested and identified no

hazardous material. The Hazardous Material Report is included in the RFP documents. The demolition

phase requires selective removal of plumbing, mechanical, electrical, flooring, and non-load bearing

walls, existing buildings, concrete decking, and pool. The construction phase will require the installation

of but not limited to new plumbing, mechanical, electrical, pool related chemical feed systems, ADA

access ramps, interior/exterior building renovations, new pump house, retaining walls, pool

commissioning & start-up, perimeter fencing, and site work. Special care shall be considered during this

project because the construction area is located in a public park that will remain open during

construction.

Bishop Park Pool was commissioned in 1977 and provides various aquatic activities for residents from

May to the end of July. Various upgrades and repairs have been performed on the pool over the years

but has reached the end of its service life. Additionally, it is reported that the pool losses approximately

10,000 – 15,000 gallons a day while in operation.
