THOMAS, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL INTRODUCTION 1.0 INTRODUCTION A. PURPOSE This report provides a basis for understanding project development history, requirements tabulation, and conceptual execution strategy for the proposed replacement of the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PK- 8 School in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. Active involvement by the user during all phases of project development, design, and construction is essential to ensure the facility meets all Virgin Islands Department of Education (VIDE) criteria, functional and master plan requirements. The following design assumptions were used to establish a basis for the programming cost estimate only. The design assumptions are not intended to be prescriptive and are included to provide confirmation of the program site and serve as the basis for the cost estimate confirmation. B. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES The goal of VIDE is to design schools to meet 21st century learning objectives to include innovation in education, curriculum delivery, use of technology, and the requirements for resiliency, sustainability, and energy conservation. VIDE requires schools of the future to be flexible and adaptable, allowing adjustments to new and innovative ways to deliver instruction and meet the needs of all students. A focus on quality, resiliency, and value must be maintained throughout the project including design and construction. The ultimate objectives for VIDE in partnership with the Virgin Islands Office of Disaster Recovery within the Virgin Islands Public Finance Authority, are to deliver the project on time, within available funds, and in a safe manner that satisfies the needs of students, faculty, and families of the territory. C. SUMMARY In the process of meeting the goals and objectives defined above and below with VIDE’s mission and vision, the PDT were able to accomplish the following tasks so as to move this important project forward:  Program + Scope Confirmation  Site Horizontal Control Confirmation  Plan Horizontal Control Confirmation  Aesthetic Approach Confirmation VIDE Mission Statement The Virgin Islands Department of Education (VIDE) provides a safe and nurturing environment, high quality instruction, and continuous support so ALL students succeed in college and careers as citizens in a globally diverse world. VIDE Vision The VIDE embraces ALL students and empowers them to achieve their fullest potential. OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL BACKGROUND 2.0 BACKGROUND A. EXISTING FACILITY Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PK-8 School is not operational due to sustained damage. It’s intended location is the former site of the EB Oliver Elementary School located in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. The original academic buildings were constructed in 1962 and have not been functioning for over seven years. Due to its being out of use, there is no current Space Curricula Alignment Indicator (SCAI) measuring the ability to be a community resource, stimulating architecture, safe and secure supervision and security, learning environments that connects flexibility and comfort and health. The findings of the PDT (Planning Design Team) are consistent with this recommendation based on site observation for the entire facility to be demolished. The planned new facility will allow for the intended development of a new Educational Pre-K to 8th grade configuration and to deliver a project- based 21st Century curriculum. As outlined above, the total area of the existing permanent facilities is approximately 58,000 SF. The total area of the existing relocatable / temporary facilities is approximately 0 SF. The following permanent buildings are recommended to remain: No existing facilities (0 SF).

SITE CONFIRMED OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL REQUIREMENT / PROGRAM TABULATIONS 3.0 REQUIREMENT / PROGRAM TABULATION A. REQUIREMENT / AUTHORIZATIONS TABULATION The proposed replacement of the Oliver PK-8 School has a projected population of 487 students Specifications for the spaces planned. The school is authorized to include a range from 68,500 to 73,900 gross square feet (GSF) with exterior covered areas. The intent for the re-programming of the facility is to: 1) accommodate the change to a PK-8 educational model; and 2) bring the facilities in alignment with VIDE’s curriculum delivery requirements for 21st Century project-based learning and teaching pedagogy. For the purpose of evaluating programming requirements, a model PK-8 program (1,070 Student Stations) was developed and provided by VIDE for determining the standards by which the programming shall be based for the planned curriculum delivery. This model was adapted, as demonstrated below, to be specific to the school facilities’ capabilities and determine a new final capacity. All modifications are denoted for clarity in developing the final approved program. Please see detailed program included herein. Note: Final facility area will be per the facility design. The final program area will be updated with the next phase of design development.

CONCEPT BUILDING PLAN SUMMARY Based on site constraints, adjacency requirements, and building area limitation, the concept design for the Oliver PreK-8 School includes an all-new school facility on the former elementary school site total four (4) new buildings. We have evolved the conceptual design provided as outlined below. It is proposed for the new facilities be placed to maximize the greatest level area on the existing site for connectivity and accessibility concerns for students and faculty. A new Administration and Media Center facility will create a secure entry and point of control for the site while also maximizing use of the media center for needed assemblies and optimized views. Additionally, the dining commons facility has been brought further forward to provide for efficient site circulation as well as secure location to allow for community use and performances. We have included a “proto-part” optimized Fort layout with PK- 8th grade accommodated based on the anticipated student population (see prior programming section). Additionally, the Gymnasium structure has been amended to reduce overall size (and spectator seating) as well as has reduced the support areas in alignment with VIDE’s curriculum requirements. The maintenance / service and support functions remain at the north side of the campus adjacent to the service area and food service entrance/access. Due to existing extreme topography change at the north side of the site, the access road has been truncated to facilitate deliveries thus affecting the service and food service access and location. Further, support service yards have been relocated to the access road area to facilitate ease of maintenance access. The entry area for the campus has been re-imagined incorporating the new security and safety campus standards. This has allowed for the development of the exterior architecture, canopies, administration areas and entry sequence. The more forward feeling alternate design strategy for the campus has been generally accepted and approved. Entry Perspective – Conceptual Design Rendering OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL CONCEPTUAL BUILDING DESIGN The design and cost estimate is based on the new Oliver PreK-8 School being designed and constructed minimizing impact to the site and grade stabilization requirements. The planned new campus will be designed in alignment with the designated bridging documents construction systems utilizing reinforced masonry and concrete walls with selective rainscreen and conventional building skin elements exterior veneer over a protective membrane and exterior insulation construction for the exterior envelope. The roof systems is planned to be sloped standing seam to match the existing construction of adjacent buildings. The materials will be consistent on all facades of the facility. The entire facility is planned to be handicap accessible and comply with requirements of the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standard and ABA Accessibility Guidelines. All interior finishes will comply with the bridging documents Master Plan materials standards / specifications, and in coordination with the existing facility construction as appropriate.

SITE PLAN SUMMARY The intent of this design effort is to confirm the path for redeveloping an existing non- operational school site to accommodate a new PK-8 educational program model and allow the displaced students collocated with the Bowsky PK-8 and Gomez Elementary Schools to return to their “home school”. Currently, the expanded enrollment has been accommodated through the temporary portable facilities on the noted alternate sites. While an all-new facility, the campus development is to be planned in a way that avoids interfering with potential future phases of expansion. In review of the existing conditions and preliminary master planning by VIDE, the team has confirmed the amended program and planning for the school campus. The base program will provide a completely new school facility including a gymnasium (FEMA Safe Room) facility. The proto-part assembly of the campus has been adapted through the Schematic Design Phase to include an Administration / Media Center building, a 2-story SLC (K-5 + 6-8) building, Electives and Dining Commons building and Gymnasium building planned to be placed on the site utilizing the most level areas available in the existing natural form of the site to create an overall accessible “plinth”. The new drop-off/pick-up area and parking lot will be located at the north side of the site and will be configured to reinforce a clear sense of entry and security. In an effort to mitigate development costs, fire department access will be coordinated to allow for building and site-specific fire department connections at the court. All environmental documentation is processed and preliminary applicable environmental clearances for the project will be secured. The Cultural Resources Survey indicates no conflict for the currently developed site and final determination is in process and will be completed with the required final environmental documentation. A topographic boundary survey and seismic evaluation is in process of being finalized for the design development. The survey will include ground-penetrating Radar GPR, underground utility’s locations, and environmental and hazmat surveys. Site contamination is not present, per our understanding. Building asbestos and hazardous material are not anticipated; however, this will be confirmed as the appropriate remediation will be required. Parking for the school is to be planned at a ratio of one parking space per member of staff, including food service, custodial, maintenance, and IT staffing. Additionally, one visitor space is planned per ten students. Five percent of the total spaces are required to be Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessible. OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL CONCEPTUAL SITE PLAN B. PHASING Due to the vacancy of the site, there are no planned phasing conditions. C. DEMOLITION The existing facilities will be removed/demolished. OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS 6.0 ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS A. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Environmental site surveys have been completed both for the Environmental Assessment (EA) for EHP and FCD and the Phase I Environmental Assessment. The draft EA is attached here with pending the next phase of design. The Phase I Environmental Assessment which documents the recognized environmental conditions of the site will be completed during the next phase of design. B. FLOODPLANS After review of local regulations and the existing site storm water master plan it was determined that the project is not located in a flood zone. The site is within Flood Zone X as shown on FEMA’s FIRM Map 28 of 94 and the US Virgin Island Flood Hazard Resource Map. The site grading is planned to generally match the existing ground elevation, with minimal soil fill to facilitate proper drainage and site preparation. The new facilities are planned to be at the same level as the existing adjacent building elevations (to the extent possible). The initial elevation will be determined from an official topographic survey during the design stage. Additional fill, grading and retaining walls will likely be required to control perimeter site elevation requirements as well as the potential need to elevate select areas of the site and new structure. Coastal Flooding will have no effect on the New School. Per response to RFI #19, there is no Tsunami flood level requirement for this school location, so the Base elevation requirements shall be based on the FEMA FIRM Map. We understand that an existing Tsunami evacuation and response plan for the school is already in place and will continue to serve as the primary life safety measure for the school during tsunami emergencies. C. CULTURAL RESOURCES A Section 106 request for the project site will be prepared by the Bioimpact, Inc. for submittal to DPNR’s Office of Historic Preservation for advice on the project and to receive State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) clearance. Historical and cultural assets are not expected to be present on the site. The planned project development is not expected to impact cultural resources. D. WETLANDS The proposed site for the facility is previously developed and does not occupy or disturb any known wetlands or wetland buffers. The property is not shown as a wetland on Fish and Wildlife Services’ National Wetland Inventory. Riparian streams are shown to the east and west of the site. Amy Dempsey with BioImpact, Inc is a certified wetland delineator and has confirmed that no wetland impacts are anticipated. OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS E. CRITICAL ZONES / BUFFERS After review of available documentation and consulting with the Installation Environmental Office, it was determined that the project is not within the first-tier jurisdiction of Coastal Zone Management (CZM) or riparian buffer areas. The project is required to go through a Federal Consistency Determination. There are riparian areas to the east and west, both are outside the disturbance footprint. (Please see notes provided in Environmental Assessment related to tsunami inundation zone.) F. VEGETATION A terrestrial survey has been completed for the site and there are no endangered or threatened species or habitat on the project site. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaC) project tool also concurs that no ESA species or habitats are expected. The terrestrial survey was done throughout the property to look for the VI Tree Boa, and no tree boas or their habitat were found on the property. There are some larger trees on the site which will be protected, and all larger trees will be preserved if possible. G. OPERATIONS CONTRAINTS A determination was made after review and consultation with all potential affected parties that the final project will not encroach or constrain any planned future site and adjacent site operations. H. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS All hazardous materials shall be managed as specified and regulated in a Hazardous Materials Management Procedures Program (HMMP). Additional investigation, engineering, and mitigation design will be addressed by the JV in the next phase of design development. There is a backup generator on site which has an internal fuel tank. There appear to be no leaks from this tank, however there are small quantities of hydrocarbons in containers around the generator and some de minimis staining. Any fuel in the tank of the generator and the small quantities of hydrocarbons present will be properly disposed of. Site hazardous materials removal will follow the applicable requirements as it relates to removal, receipt, distribution, storage and disposition of all hazardous materials on the site. The presence of existing asbestos, lead-based paint, PCBs, etc. shall be investigated and a plan will be determined for any required abatement. Due to the age of the building, these hazards may be present and will require proper removal, disposal and mitigation in accordance with applicable standards.

Chilled water piping systems shall include a variable-primary pumping distribution to the building cooling equipment. Acceptable manufacturers include Carrier, Daikin, JCI, Trane or equivalent air-cooled chiller manufacturer. Chillers shall include low-sound packages. Operational noise should meet local ordinances. The chiller plant is estimated to provide a nominal 500 tons of cooling. The chiller plant shall be capable of producing 66% of the calculated block load with one chiller. b. Initial chiller sizing for the (2) rotary screw chillers is 250 tons each. c. Each chiller’s condensing coil shall be hot dipped at the factory or remote facility to prevent premature corrosion. This coil coating is for protection from the environmental salty sea air. 2. Underground Chilled Water Piping a. The building will be provided with new 6” chilled water supply and return piping from the new central energy plant. Underground chilled water piping shall be minimized as practical. Underground chilled water piping shall be direct burial HDPE piping. i. HDPE Carrier Pipe: The innermost pipe, made of High-Density Polyethylene, carries the chilled water. HDPE is chosen for its excellent resistance to corrosion, chemical inertness, flexibility, and smooth interior bore. ii. Thermal Insulation: Surrounding the HDPE carrier pipe is a layer of high-efficiency, closed-cell insulation, polyurethane foam. This foam is injected or foamed around the carrier pipe during manufacturing, creating a uniform, continuous barrier. OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL SUPPORTING INFRASTRUCTURE Note: Structural, Civil, and MEPFP outline specifications subject to revision and value engineering through design iii. HDPE Outer Jacket: The entire assembly (carrier pipe + insulation) is encased in a robust, corrugated High-Density Polyethylene outer jacket. 3. Chilled Water Pumping System a.

K. TRANSITIONAL STRUCTURES AND SPACES Based on current condition, no temporary facilities are required. OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL SAFETY / SECURITY 8.0 SAFETY / SECURITY A. SAFETY / SECURITY STANDARDS Design Criteria The design of the site and facilities will be performed in accordance with the standards listed below. In the case of conflict between these criteria, the most stringent requirement will govern. Further development of the design will be held in compliance with these standards. NFPA Fire Codes NFPA 101 ICC500-202 Standard for the Design and construction of Storm Shelters FEMA P-361 FEMA Standard for Design of Safe Rooms for Tornadoes and Hurricanes IBC 2024 International Building Code, 2024 2021 US Virgin Island Code, Title 29 - Public Planning and Development, Chapter 5- Building Code Basis of Design The proposed development is a new replacement of an existing non-operating school campus. The school is planned to be located within a secure perimeter (P-1). A secondary perimeter (P-2) will be located within the property to define the zone at which students are secure within the campus during operations. A single point of entry is defined at the Administration to control the campus. Refer to Site Safety / Security Diagram below: SECURITY CHECKPOINT SINGLE POINT OF ENTRY P-1 P-1 P-1 DINING ADMIN + MEDIA GYM + LOCKERS FORT P-1 OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL SAFETY / SECURITY Site Features: Playground equipment will be located within the protective perimeter (P-2). All electrical and mechanical equipment, i.e., specify transformers, condensers, chillers, etc., as well as all trash containers and the respective enclosures will be located within a secure perimeter and away from schools and support buildings. Parking areas for schools and support buildings will be in areas of control and ease of visual supervision. Access gates will control access to the site as well as prevent access within the P-2 boundary during school operations. Per Charrette discussion, VIDE is implementing new metal detector access point controls and scanners. VIDE is to provide the new security standards and requirements for these systems in the next design phase. Designated locations are indicated for preliminary recommendations on the Site Safety / Security Diagram. Drive-Up / Drop-Off Roadways: Barriers and Roadways will be provided to protect drive and drop-off areas. Gates and controls will be placed to secure access accordingly. Passive barriers will be proposed in the design phase to limit ease of access for vehicles to designated drop-off and building areas. Building and Vertical Construction Features: Electronic Physical Access Control Systems The intent for the new planned expansion will reshape and re-position the administrative suite for the campus to create a new centralized single point of entry at the front of the school. This initial move will relocate the control point in compliance with VIDE’s security requirements. Access Control – Locations Access control to schools and support buildings will use a centralized system in coordination with VIDE standards. Access Control – Interior Doors Based on the design configuration of the remodel and expansion to the school, it may be necessary to equip additional interior doors with controls. This item is to be evaluated and designed in accordance with VIDE standards. Smart Cards The renovation and expansion areas planned will use the Common Access Card as the identity credential for supporting interoperable access to the schools in accordance with the VIDE security criteria. Smart Cad Security Management Software The expansion and renovation area of the school shall be designed to use a fully integrated access control solution to always monitor and track who is coming and going (when applicable), approved by VIDE personnel. The software will allow the school and support buildings to grant access to VIDE personnel. The software will be designed to include real-time messaging and cross platform communications to manage the access control system. The software will allow VIDE to terminate access. OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL SAFETY / SECURITY Intercom Requirements The project delivery team shall make every effort to integrate security intercoms (e.g., public call stations) with remote door and remote gate release in accordance with the VIDE operational requirements. If unable to integrate into the existing system, a new system shall be provided. Intercom System Functions The new expansion and renovation areas planned shall have an intercom system to provide visitors and, on occasion, students and staff the means to communicate with the administrative suite for entry into the school or support buildings. By providing these types of systems, it eliminates the need for students and staff to leave doors propped open for convenience, enhancing force protection. Ai-Phone Intercom System Locations The project delivery team will place the master station at a reception desk inside the administrative suite, central storage, receiving room, and kitchen office. Access Control Support Equipment The new single point of entry and administration suite shall have installed the controls client enrollment workstation. The client enrollment workstation is to manage the access control system and issue temporary access badges to authorized visitors, volunteers, and contractors. Door Position Sensors Door position sensors are recommended to be provided for all new and renovated areas to report the open or closed status of a door to the access control system, allowing it to engage locks, annunciate alarm conditions, and other actions that provide security integrity. This item shall be addressed in the design phase. OLIVER PK-8 SCHOOL SCOPE CHANGES 9.0 SUMMARY OF SCOPE CHANGES A.

It also draws from virtual tours and precedents such as Jefferson Terrace Academy and Capps Middle School. Projects that are focused on modernizations/expansions are derivative of these programs to ensure equity between the new and existing schools. The program of spaces is divided into eight main categories of square footage that are then combined to generate a total proposed square footage for a PreK-8 facility. There is also an addition of 20% net to gross area, based on industry standards as applied to the Virgin Islands. These categories include: 1) administration, 2) core academics, 3) elective spaces, 4) media center, 5) SPED services, 6) food services, 7) physical education, and 8) building support. A ninth site category can also be found at the bottom of the program of spaces, but it does not account for any square footage and serves solely as a check-list of site elements that would poten- tially need to be considered on a PreK-8 campus. Each campus is further broken down by age, through commu- nities of elementary and middle school students. In order to provide appropriate collaboration space among age appropriate cohorts, there will be separate K-5 learning suites and 6-8 learn- ing suites. PreK-8 Program Summary The optimum capacity for the PreK-8 has been calculated based on the learning suite layouts along with the maximum number of students per class within each grade level. The calculations are laid out in the following chart. 1 Section 2 Sections 3 Sections 4 Sections 5 Sections Pre-K 17 17 17 17 17 TOTALS 17 34 51 68 85 K 25 25 25 25 25 First 30 30 30 30 30 Second 30 30 30 30 30 Third 30 30 30 30 30 Fourth 30 30 30 30 30 Fifth 30 30 30 30 30 TOTALS 175 384 525 700 875 Sixth 30 30 30 30 30 Seventh 27 27 27 27 27 Eighth 27 27 27 27 27 TOTALS 84 168 252 336 420 TOTAL 1070 Capacity calculations COPYRIGHT© 2020 THIS INFORMATION IS CONCEPTUAL IN NATURE AND IS SUBJECT TO ADJUSTMENTS PENDING FURTHER PROJECT DEVELOPMENT. 297 US VIRGIN ISLANDS EDUCATIONAL FACILITY MASTER PLAN U.S. Virgin Islands PK-8 Planning Program Program Area Functional Capacity 1.0 Administration 6,630 2.0 Core Academic 65,200 1,070 3.0 Elective Spaces 6,400 4.0 Media Center 4,850 5.0 SPED Services 2,350 6.0 Food Service 12,400 7.0 Physical Education 10,870 8.0 Building Support 650 Total Useable Area (Net Square Feet- NSF): 1,070 General Building Area: Walls, Partitions, Mech.

These space types can then be manipulated or arranged in vari- ous ways to generate different learning suite layout options that best fit the needs of future-facing learning practices in the USVI. Based on the key space types that were identified in the vision- ing process and informed by national benchmarks, learning suite solutions were created for various grade levels.

It also draws from virtual tours and precedents such as Canyon View High School. Projects that are focused on modernizations/expansions are derivative of these programs to ensure equity between the new and existing schools. The program of spaces is divided into nine main categories of square footage that are then combined to generate a total pro- posed square footage for a high school facility. There is also an addition of 20% net to gross area based on industry standards as applicable to the Virgin Islands. These categories include: 1) administration, 2) core academics, 3) elective spaces, 4) media center, 5) multi-purpose spaces; 6) SPED services, 7) food services, 8) physical education, and 9) building support. A 10th site category can also be found at the bottom of the pro- gram of spaces, but it does not account for any square footage and serves solely as a check-list of site elements that would potentially need to be considered on a high school campus. There are various line items in the program of spaces that are highlighted in light blue. These are all of the spaces that, while potentially dispersed throughout various areas of the building, would be directly tied to a CTE pathway. 9-12 Advancement Opportunities 9-12 Program Summary The following program is indicative only of a comprehensive high school.

VIDE has been able to secure Federal Emergency Management Grants Administration funding for these projects. VIDE therefore will be requesting a Determination of Federal Consistency through the Department of Planning and Natural Resources, Division of Coastal Zone Management for the FEMA funded project – Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School renovation/modernization as required under the VI Code Section 1, VIR and Regs. Title 12, Subchapter 904, section 904-8. LOCATION The Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School is located on Rem 148-235, Estate Annas Retreat, New Quarter, St. Thomas, at Latitude 18.335792°N, Longitude -64.885797° W. Figure 1.

Location of Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School in relationship to the Coastal Zone Management First Tier Jurisdiction Limit Although the project is outside the first-tier jurisdiction limit of Coastal Zone Management, the project is required to obtain a Federal Consistency Determination. The Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 requires that federal actions, within and outside the coastal zone, which have reasonably foreseeable effects on any coastal use (land or water), or natural resources of the coastal zone be consistent with the enforceable policies of a state's federally approved coastal management program. The project must be undertaken in a manner consistent to the maximum extent practicable with the enforceable policies of the U.S. Virgin Islands’ CZM Program. This federal consistency determination demonstrates this projects compliance with the U.S. Virgin Islands’ CZM Program. The following policies are set forth in the U.S. Virgin Islands Code Title 12, Conservation Chapter 21, Virgin Islands Coastal Zone Management [V.I. Code tit. 12, § 903(b)]. EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 4 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT The Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School was damaged during the 2017 Hurricane Irma and Maria category V storms and was deemed unsafe for students, and faculty and remains closed. Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School has been assessed by FEMA and approved for renovation/modernization and the addition of new buildings. The purpose of the project is to meet the current and future demand for student space at the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School. Reconstructionof Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School encompasses the demolition and reconstruction of the school. The reconstruction will include the administrative offices, library, cafeteria, kitchen, bathrooms, stairways, balconies, theater, hallways and all fixtures and equipment. The project will meet VIDE’s vision outlined in the Bridging Documents, under the FEMA Public Assistance (PA) program utilizing the flexibility afforded by the Bipartisan Budget Act (BBA). All buildings, parking lots, drives and sidewalks within the existing school site will be demolished. The reconstruction includes a new entrance drive and parking along the northern portion of the site. A new utility building will be built on the far west of the site. A one-story gym and dining building will be built in the center of the site, and 4 new building will wrap around the site to the east including a one- and a two-story classroom building, a one-story media building and a two-story administration building. A new playground will be constructed between the gym and the most southern classroom building. EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 1 Figure 4.

Proposed Development Site Plan for Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK- 8th EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 3 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Climate/Weather The most representative long-term wind records were found to be those from the Cyril E. King Airport station (located approximately 5.7 miles west of the Project Area). The station contains approximately 68 years of wind data records beginning in 1953. NOAA Station 9751639 is located closer (2.2 miles) to the project site on the West Indian Company (WICO) Dock but only has wind records dating back to the year 2000. The data indicates that the predominant winds are from the east, with 90% of the winds occurring from the southeast to northeast. Winds from the occur approximately 5% of the data record. A wind rose of the hourly wind speeds for the 1953 – 2020 time period is provided in Figure 6. Figure 6. Hourly Wind Rose for Cyril E. King Airport, 1953-2020 (https://weather.gov/data/obhistory/TIST.html) Storm and Hurricanes There are numerous disturbances during the year, especially squalls and thunderstorms. These occur most frequently during the summer, lasting only a few hours and causing no pronounced change in the Trade Winds. A tropical cyclone who’s sustained (1 minute average) winds exceed 74 miles per hour is termed as a hurricane in the northern hemisphere and significantly affects the area. Hurricanes occur most frequently between August and mid-October with their peak activity occurring in September. EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 4 St. Thomas was hit by two Category V hurricanes in September of 2017, Irma on September 6th and Maria on September 19-20th. Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School was significantly damaged by these hurricanes and remains closed. Rainfall The average annual rainfall on St. Thomas is approximately 40 inches, ranging from 35 inches toward the eastern end of the island to more than 55 inches at the higher elevations. The Ivanna Endora Kean High School area receives around 45 inches of rainfall per year, on average. The rainfall usually occurs in brief, intense showers of less than a few tenths of an inch. February and March are the driest months, and September is the wettest, with nearly half the annual rainfall occurring between August and November. Over the last several years weather patterns have been shifting, and more intense hurricanes with greater rainfalls have been occurring. Figure 7. Rainfall data from East Hill, St. Thomas EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 5 Figure 8. Rainfall data Anna's Retreat, VQIVIST0001 Temperature Annual temperatures average 79 degrees Fahrenheit (F), with the winter low averaging 76 degrees F. and the summer high reaching an average of 84 degrees F. Occasionally, maximum daily temperatures will exceed 90 degrees F. and minimum temperatures will drop below 70 degrees F. (NWS). Impact of weather on Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School, the existing weather patterns have been considered in the design of the renovations and improvements, and the design and construction will make the school to withstand the weather events which may occur. This resiliency will minimize the disruption that significant weather events will have on the lives of Virgin Islands residents. Landform Geology, Soils and Historic Land Use Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School is a developed site and as such the site has been graded and altered. The 1954 aerial service map shown below shows no development in the. The school was built in 1975 and was designed to house 700 students.

These soils are not prime farmland, and they have a weathered parent material. The depth to a restrictive layer is 10 t0 20 inches, where either lithic bedrock or paralithic bedrock is encountered. The depth to water is more than 80 inches in this well drained soil. EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 10 Figure 13. USDA Soil Survey Map Drainage, Erosion Control, and Maintenance The Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School encompasses approximately xx acres. The highest elevation is found at the entrance, and the center of the school property is level at 220ft of elevation, with some existing class rooms on the edge of the knoll down to 190ft of elevation. There are no well-defined drainage ways within the property, and the property has been extensively graded. EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 11 Figure 14. Topographic Map of the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School Drainage Patterns Runoff flows down slopes and is channeled along drives and walkways. The hydrology and hydraulics design has two primary objectives: to effectively convey water off of paved surfaces and away from buildings such that their use is not impacted during heavy rains and to attempt to minimize site runoff to no more than the volume generated by the existing site conditions. To support this, we will prepare a drainage layout identifying major features of buried and surface drainage, such as pipes, inlets, utility holes, swales, and culverts. The drainage layout will be used to create a site hydraulic model which will allow us to verify rough sizing for drainage features, as well as estimate the increased volume of runoff for the design storm due to increased impervious surfaces. The TR-55 method will be used for estimating the design storm runoff volumes and flow rates, per the requirements in the TPDES and SWPPP. Strictly enforced measures to control sedimentation and erosion will be implemented during all phases of construction to ensure that rainfall will not affect the nearby drainageways or result in erosion of soil. Due to the size of the project Suffolk-CBNA JV will be applying for coverage under the General Construction Permit. EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 12 Coastal Floodplain According to the effective (2007) FEMA FIRM Map and the USVI Flood Hazard Advisory Map Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School lies in Flood Zone X where 100-yr coastal flooding is not expected during the 100-year return period flood event. Figure 15. FEMA FIRM 28 of 94 April 16, 2007 EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 13 Figure 16. USVI Flood Hazard Advisory Map Fresh Water Resources The proposed reconstruction/addition to the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School will have no impact on freshwater resources. No freshwater ponds or streams occur within the project footprint and groundwater resources within the area are deeper than 80 inches according to the USGS Soil Survey. There are two ponds located down slope to the east of the school. The USGS St. Thomas Well Survey shows a number of wells in the vicinity of the Yvonne E. Milliner Bowsky Elementary School which are listed as belonging to Mahogany Run (#31, #32), these wells are no longer in use. EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 14 Figure 17. Wells in the vicinity of the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School There are not wells on the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School. EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 15 Oceanography The project location is inland and will not be affected by sea storm events. The project will implement strict stormwater control measures during construction and will apply for coverage under the General Stormwater Permit for construction and the required monitoring of the controls and therefore should not create sediment laden runoff which could affect water quality in the watershed of ponds down slope. Marine Resources The property is located inland and will have no direct impact on the marine environment if strict sedimentation and erosion control are implemented and monitored. Terrestrial Resources The proposed project will occur within the existing previously developed areas of Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School. No natural terrestrial resources or any native flora or fauna should be impacted during the renovation and modernization to Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School. The school has some larger trees around the property, some of which could be considered specimen trees. These have been planted as part of the landscaping or by the facility of the school. Where possible all larger trees will be preserved. The school has become heavy overgrown since it is not in use. EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 16 There are several yellow flame trees (Peltophorum pterocarpum) on the property. Secondary growth vegetation has taken over much of the school. There are large trees scattered about the site by buildings, in the parking lot, near the playing court, many of which are probably remnants from the original forest. These include mahoganies (Swietenia mahagoni, Swietenia macrophylla), tamarinds (Tamarindus indica), hog plums (Spondias mombin), genips (Melicoccus bijugatus), and EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 17 African tulip trees (Spathodea campanulata). Wetlands The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers defines wetlands as "those areas that are periodically inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support and under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands generally include swamps, bogs, marshes and similar areas." (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 1986). The Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School renovations will have no impact on wetlands. Figure 18. FWS National Wetland Inventory Rare and Endangered Species Endangered or threatened species or endangered species could occur near the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School. According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaC) project tool, endangered species, are expected to be found within the area of the proposed project site. The Virgin Islands Tree Boa, Chilabothrus granti, is listed as potentially occurring on the site. A terrestrial EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 18 survey was done throughout the property, and no ESA species were noted within the developed portion of the school, but the surrounding forest could provide habitat for the Virgin Islands Tree Boa, and it is possible that a tree boa could be found on the site in the trees which are scattered about the site. Reptiles were abundant and tree anoles (Anolis cristatellus), grass anoles (Anolis pulchellus), barred anoles (Anolis stratulus), dwarf geckos (Thecadactylus sp), and common ground lizards (Sphaerodactylus macrolepis) were seen around the buildings and in the forested areas surrounding the site. The Virgin Islands tree boa could be present but was not seen during the survey. There is sufficient interdigitation in the surrounding forested areas and there is an adequate prey base. Prior to any construction activity, including removal of vegetation and earth movement, the boundaries of the project area must be delineated so that areas not slated for construction are not impacted. A training session should be held with the Division of Fish and Wildlife prior to the start of work and then again at the start of construction so workers can be informed about the boas and what to do if they are encountered. Figure 19. Virgin Islands Tree Boa, Chilabothrus granti (FWS website) EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 19 There is adequate refugia around and on the property. There is good interdigitation within the school property for the tree boa. Air Quality There will be minor increases in emissions during the project due to the use of heavy construction equipment that EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 20 will create combustion engine exhaust. Upon project completion, air quality will return to pre-construction conditions. IMPACT ON MAN’S ENVIRONMENT Land and Water Use Plans The project site is zoned R-2 Residential Low Density. Secondary schools are a permit use by right in the R-2 zoning. The proposed reconstruction/modernization/expansion of the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School will not alter the existing use and is in accordance with the laws and regulations of the U.S. Virgin Islands. Visual Impacts The proposed reconstruction/modernization project will improve the visual appearance of the school and will be a positive impact on the viewshed. Social and Economic Impacts Providing the best possible schools for Virgin Islands children is a positive social impact. Schools that are modern and provide children with safe environments and adequate space where they can thrive will help advance the Virgin Islands socially and economically. Historical and Archaeological Resources The proposed reconstruction/modernization/expansion of the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School project will only result in alterations to previously disturbed areas within the project footprint. No undisturbed area will be affected. A clearance letter will be requested from the State Historic Preservation Office. Waste Disposal and Accidental Spills The Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority has specific guidelines and criteria for accepting construction debris. Any excess excavated material spoils and construction debris will be collected, taken off-site, and disposed of in accordance with all governing laws and regulations. The high school is connected to the public sewage treatment system. COASTAL CONSISTENCY The reconstruction and modernization of Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School will have a negligible potential of impacting environmental resources, or ambient water quality during construction. A General Stormwater Permit for construction will be obtained by Suffolk-CBNA JV) and sedimentation and erosion control measures will be implemented during all construction to ensure that no environmental impacts occur. The proposed project will occur only within previously altered areas and if required, archeological monitoring will be conducted to minimize impact on historical or cultural resources Project activities stop if historic remains or resources are encountered, and SHPO will be contacted to determine the best course of action. The Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 requires that federal actions, within and outside the coastal EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 21 zone, which have reasonably foreseeable effects on any coastal use (land or water), or natural resource of the coastal zone be consistent with the enforceable policies of a state's federally approved coastal management program. Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School renovations, modernization and addition, as proposed, will be undertaken in a manner consistent to the maximum extent practicable with the enforceable policies of the U.S. Virgin Islands’ CZM Program. The future federal consistency determination will demonstrate that the Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School renovations, modernization and addition project’s compliance with the U.S. Virgin Islands’ CZM Program. The following policies are set forth in the U.S. Virgin Islands Code Title 12, Conservation Chapter 21, Virgin Islands Coastal Zone Management [V.I. Code tit. 12, § 903(b)]. The proposed Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School project meets each of the basic goals of the USVI for its coastal zone. Additional details are as follows: USVI Code Title Twelve Conservation, Chapter 21 § 903 (b) (1) Protect, maintain, preserve and, where feasible, enhance and restore, the overall quality of the environment in the coastal zone, the natural and man-made resources therein, and the scenic and historic resources of the coastal zone for the benefit of residents of and visitors of the United States Virgin Islands. - The proposed Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School project is entirely within previously disturbed and developed areas within the project footprint. The project will not impact any natural resources and will improve the visual landscape. (2) Promote economic development and growth in the coastal zone and consider the need for development of greater than territorial concern by managing: (1) the impacts of human activity and (2) the use and development of renewable and nonrenewable resources so as to maintain and enhance the long-term productivity of the coastal environment. - Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School is located mid inland and is the redevelopment of an existing school, the redevelopment of a brownfield site rather than a greenfield side protects the Virgin Islands’ non renewable resources. (3) Assure priority for coastal-dependent development over other development in the coastal zone by reserving areas suitable for commercial uses including hotels and related facilities, industrial uses including port and marine facilities, and recreation uses. - Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School is outside the coastal area, and is redevelopment does not affect potential commercial uses in the coastal zone and is therefore consistent with this policy. (4) Assure the orderly, balanced utilization and conservation of the resources of the coastal zone, taking into account the social and economic needs of the residents of the United States Virgin Islands. - The school reconstruction will only occur in areas that have been previously altered. Safe modern schools are essential for a community to thrive, and the renovation and modernization of the school will help meet that goal. 5) Preserve, protect and maintain the trust lands and other submerged and filled lands of the United States Virgin Islands so as to promote the general welfare of the people of the United States Virgin Islands. - The proposed school reconstruction and expansion will not impact trust lands or other submerged or filled lands of the U.S. Virgin Islands. (6) Preserve what has been a tradition and protect what has become a right of the public by EMANUEL BENJAMIN OLIVER PREK-8 SCHOOL GRANT MANAGER:XXXXX FEMA APPLICANT ID:#XXXXX 22 insuring that the public, individually and collectively, has and shall continue to have the right to use and enjoy the shorelines and to maximize public access to and along the shoreline consistent with constitutionally protected rights of private property owners. - The school reconstruction and expansion project will in no way affect public access to, or use of, the shoreline. The property has no waterfront and is located mid island. (7) Promote and provide affordable and diverse public recreational opportunities in the coastal zone for all residents of the United States Virgin Islands through acquisition, development and restoration of areas consistent with sound resource conservation principles. - The proposed school reconstruction and expansion will not affect public recreational opportunities in the coastal zone. (8) Conserve ecologically significant resource areas for their contribution to marine productivity and value as wildlife habitats, and preserve the function and integrity of reefs, marine meadows, salt ponds, mangroves and other significant natural areas. - The proposed school reconstruction and expansion is designed so that it impacts only previously disturbed areas. The project will have no impact on natural resources and will utilize best management practices (BMPs) to minimize areas of disturbance, thereby protecting adjacent properties. (9) Maintain or increase coastal water quality through control of erosion, sedimentation, runoff, siltation, and sewage discharge. - The school is tied into the public WWTP. The project will implement sedimentation and erosion control BMPs to prevent loss of sediment from the project site. - The proposed Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School reconstruction, modernization and addition project, as designed, will maintain coastal water quality through control of erosion, sedimentation, runoff, and siltation and therefore is consistent with the policy set forth in the USVI Code Title 12, Conservation Chapter 21, Virgin Islands Coastal Zone Management [V.I. Code tit. 12, § 903 (b)]. - The proposed Emanuel Benjamin Oliver PreK-8 School reconstruction. modernization and expansion project, as designed, protects, maintains, preserves, and enhances the overall quality of the environment in the coastal zone, the natural and man-made resources therein, and the scenic and historic resources of the coastal zone for the benefit of residents of and visitors of the USVI. It is therefore consistent with the policy V.I. Code tit. 12, § 903 (b).
