An asset of the Pike-San Isabel National Forests & Cimarron and Comanche National Grasslands (PSICC) South Platte Ranger District (RD), the Buffalo Creek Work Center was built in 1938 by the Works Projects Administration and is located at 18046 County Road 126, Buffalo Creek, CO 80425. The Work Center of roughly 3½ acres hosts several structures, including, but not limited to, the Office, Garage/Shop, and Dwelling constructed in 1938, and the Barracks and Engine Storage constructed in 2002, as well as several other miscellaneous structures and utility features. Like many historical buildings of this age, the office is very inefficient in terms of energy consumption and space utilization. Under this contract new office space and an additional engine bay space will be constructed as an addition to the existing Engine Storage building. Work in the base items includes mobilization; quality control; construction staking and layout; construction of site utilities for water, sewer, natural gas, power and telecommunications; final site grading; parking area construction; demolition of existing site features and utilities; and foundation, building, and mechanical/electrical/plumbing systems construction.

Incidental work includes submittals for quality control; submittals for safety and accident prevention; coordination with local utility companies; submittals for products and shop drawings; the construction schedule; construction waste management; operation and maintenance manuals, as well as system demonstration and training.
