Terminal 2: Hydrant Fuel System Decommission

Project Manager for the decommissioning of the existing hydrant fuel system and terminating the PANYNJ’s three fuel distribution mains with pipe caps and three vents in vent pits. All previously decommissioned hydrant fuel piping and existing hydrant fuel system piping to be decommissioned were located and the condition verified for decommissioning via the slurry fill method. All decommissioned piping lengths were recorded for modifying the Terminal 2 NY State MOSF Permit.

Terminal 3: Demolition and New Hardstands

Project Manager/Engineer of Record for the decommissioning of the existing Terminal 3 hydrant fuel system. All decommissioned piping lengths were recorded for modifying the Terminal 4 NY State MOSF Permit. Existing PANYNJ fuel distribution mains were extended and terminated with isolation valves in pits. These mains were extended and joined together on the Terminal 3 side of the valve pits to create a single 12-inch fuel main to service three new hardstands. A valve vault at the end of the 12-inch fuel main was designed to provide for the extension of the fuel main. Hydrant pits and other fuel pits were provided along the fuel main. Full time Resident Engineering and Construction Administration services were provided during the construction phase work.

Terminal 4: Concourse Extension

Project Manager/Engineer of Record for the Phase 1 extension of Concourse B’s hydrant fuel system after the previous Project Manager left Argus Consulting, Inc. during the construction phase of the project. Full time Resident Engineering and Construction Administration services were provided during the construction phase work.

Project Manager/Engineer of Record for the Phase 2 extension of Concourse B to provide regional aircraft contact gates. The design of the hydrant fuel piping extending from the Phase 1 hydrant fuel system piping was developed with the fuel piping being routed closer than normal to the terminal building and more than 100 feet away from the building face to reduce the construction cost. The hydrant fuel system piping included hydrant pits, low point drain and high point vent pits, a cathodic protection system for the hydrant fuel piping and an emergency fuel shut off (EFSO) system. Full time Resident Engineering and Construction Administration services were provided during the construction phase work.

Project Manager/Engineer for a 30 percent design of a hydrant fuel system for a 15-gate extension of Terminal 4’s Concourse A. The critical design issue is the ability to adjust the route of the two existing Terminal 4 fuel mains to the Terminal 5 side aircraft contact gates and the three Terminal 5 fuel mains passing Concourse A. The concourse extension will include a drive through near the end of the existing Concourse A. PANYNJ and other rules require that piping passing under buildings must be encased in a pipe sleeve with sealed ends. The 30 percent design developed a plan to achieve PANYNJ approval.
