All equipment, piping, fluid solutions, and debris shall become the property of the contractor. The contractor is responsible for the safe and proper transport and legal disposal of all materials off base, in strict accordance with local, state, and federal environmental regulations. The contractor will procure and install a dual CRAC unit system. CRAC Units: Provide and install two (2) 8-Ton CRAC units. Both units must feature multi-stage cooling capabilities. 1.
