FCC Coleman Medium and Low security institutions were constructed approximately 31 years ago. Since then, the coastal elements have deteriorated the external egress stairs to the housing units. Some of the stairwells have been barricaded and shut down due to the repairs needed.

The Contractor shall repair, replace, and paint four stairwells at the Low Institution (A&B Unit) and six stairwells at the Medium Institution (A, B, C Units) to include the installation of security fencing between (A, B, C,) Units at the Medium Institution.

The Contractor shall evaluate and repair and/or replace any element of the stairwell that is not structurally sound with the same type of ASTM rated original material such as but not limited to I beams, channel iron, handrail, rectangular tubing, etc. It has been observed that approximately 50% of the structure at the Medium Institution has failed and 50% of the structure at the Low Institution has failed.
