Landscape and Civil

• Site is relatively fmat with gentle slope towards glacial depression

and wetland at southwestern corner of lot; native vegetation dominates site, located less than one mile from coast within National Seashore

• Courtyards serve as circulation spine and informal gathering space
• Pavement conditions are fair to poor at parking and circulation

areas

• Courtyards fmood regularly; entrances are sandbagged to prevent

building fmooding

• Stormwater inlet grates are diffjcult to clean, exacerbating fmooding
• Eight accessible parking spaces provided, but signage, access aisle,

and accessible route do not meet MAAB standards

• Approximately 300 parking spaces, insuffjcient for large events
• Clear pedestrian connection does not exist across vehicular

circulation loop to athletic fjelds

• No perimeter fencing exists on site

Architectural

• Exterior wood deterioration due to weather and animals
• Door & Hardware systems are in various states of disrepair with a

mix of non-complaint and complaint door hardware through-out

• Casework is typically original, outdated, and worn; storage is

limited due to unit ventilator housed in casework

• Damage to classroom VCT fmooring due to previous water

infjltration at windows

• Exterior Envelope with low R-value: 3/4” insulation in exterior

walls, degrading where exposed to elements

• Acoustical treatments are applied inconsistently across campus
• Roofs, doors, and windows replaced in 2012 are in good condition

Structural

• Single- and two-story concrete and steel structures with basements
• The existing structure is performing well and appears sound
• Structural system is inherently fmexible and interior partitions can

easily be reconfjgured

• Structures do not have explicit lateral load resisting system
• Minor cracks in the exterior concrete frames were observed, with

some spalling at corners

• No signs of foundation settlement were observed
• No undue vibrations due to footfalls on the supported slabs were
• bserved
• Few signs of past water leaks were observed
• Seismic clipping of all existing masonry walls will be required
• Proposed renovations will trigger an analysis of the existing

building and removal or relocation of walls will require the addition

• f shear walls or braced frames
• Expansion joint between buildings E and N is inadequate and

fjnishes have deteriorated

Mechanical

• The two original boilers that have been converted to natural

gas are beyond their life expectancy

• Boilers are required to run year round in order to maintain

water temperature of 4,000-gal hot water storage tank

• Hot water distribution piping serves campus through a tight

underground tunnel system

• Hot water room ventilators are original and typically in poor

condition based on age

• DX split systems with outdoor-mounted condensers are

installed in select locations

• Indoor heating & ventilation air handler serving the gym is

located in the basement mechanical room; unit is noisy and past its useful life

• Existing pneumatic controls system serving buildings A-G

has issues with actuators and oil in the lines. Compressors supporting pneumatic system are in fair condition

• Electronic controls serving the rooftop DX air handlers in

Building N are in fair operating condition but have reached the end of their expected life.

Electrical

• Electrical infrastructure for campus was installed in 1996 and

is in fair condition. The installed electrical infrastructure is approaching its useful end of life. Availability of spare parts, such as circuit breakers, UL listed for use in the installed panels, may become diffjcult to obtain.

• Emergency panel loads are mixed between Life Safety and Stand-

by systems, in violation of electric code

• The Campus complex is served by a single 200kW diesel genera-
• tor. The generator is installed in a weather-tight enclosure out-

side the boiler room of Building D. The belly fuel tank exhibited visual rust corrosion on the exterior surface.

• The Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) and emergency distribution

is installed within a 2-hour rated electric room within the Boiler Room.

• Exterior lighting appears to have been retrofjtted or replaced

with LED lamps sources. It was reported that site lighting cov- erage is not consistent across campus, creating challenges in crossing the property after sunset.

• Shops contained several outlets without covers or were dam-

aged with exposed live parts.

Fire Protection

• Fire Protection Systems do not currently exist in the school.
• If proposed renovations or additions exceed 50% of the existing fmoor area, a complete Fire Protection

system will be required.

• A fjre hydrant was installed near the northeast corner of Building D when the town water was connected

to the school. Additional fjre hydrants will need to be installed around the school in locations worked

• ut with the Eastham Fire Chief. A water main loop will need to be constructed to supply water to the

hydrants.

• Installation of new hydrants connected to the town water system will make the existing 50,000 gallon

buried water storage tank on the southerly side of Building C and the appurtenant dry hydrant system

• bsolete.

Plumbing

• Most lavatories, water closets, and urinals appear to be in good
• condition. Lavatories are wall-hung and do not appear to be

provided with individual mixing valves to limit the temperature

• f water provided at the fjxture. ADA lavatories have their trap

and piping covered with an approved insulation system.

• Several rest rooms are utilized as storage, normally left locked,

and fjxtures are in poor condition.

• The building is currently provided with a 6” domestic water

service without backfmow prevention.

• The sanitary piping exposed to view was cast iron and appears

to be in good condition, as does gas piping.

• Existing hose bibbs observed at this time appear to be in fair

to poor condition and do not appear to have vacuum breakers included as required by code.

• The kitchen plumbing fjxtures and fmoor drains do not connect

to a separate grease waste system as required by code. There is no evidence of an exterior grease trap.

• Science lab classrooms are equipped with master gas shut-ofg

valve located near the entry door. Stafg reported that some classroom gas systems are disconnected.

Food Service

• Kitchen is severely undersized and poorly equipped, and

equipment is worn

• Flooring is in fair condition with the exception of the area

adjacent to grease trap

• Ceilings are not smooth and have accumulated grease and dust
• Walk-in freezer and cooler are undersized; insulated panel at

walk-in freezer is deteriorating

• Wood storage shelving used at storage area is not Health Code

Compliant or NSF approved

• Exposed piping run above stored items is not permitted by

Health Code and should be enclosed by a ceiling

• Lighting levels are inadequate throughout kitchen, especially at

exhaust hood, which is inadequestly sized

• Serving line does not have equipment for maintaining

temperatures of cold food

• Sneeze guard above hot food wells not compliant with current

standards and health code requirements

• Tray washing machine is large and ineffjcient

Nauset Regional High School The Nauset Regional High School found in North Eastham Massachusetts serves approximately 965 students from grade 9 to 12. The school’s cafeteria kitchen prepares and serves the typical school lunch program in multiple serving lines. There are two lines found within the kitchen boundary as is typical. A third serving line, a deli, was added outside the kitchen within the seating area which is only done when space is limited. Also found in among the seating are multiple cashier stands and beverage displays. Unfortunately, when not in use these items sit

• utside the kitchen boundary and cannot be secured.

The kitchen equipment is well worn, and the kitchen is severely undersized and poorly

• equipped. For example, the original build for the school included just a walk-in freezer where

normally a walk-in cooler and freezer is needed for the number of students being served. Due, to the lack of refrigerated storage many smaller reach-in refrigerators were added to the kitchen

• area. These additions further worsen the lack of space within the kitchen area.

The following observation will reference codes and

• standards. For the purposes of this report when we

reference the health code, we will be citing the Federal Food Code, 2017 addition, published by the FDA as well as the Merged Massachusetts Food Code 2011 addition. We will also reference the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF). It is an independent governing body that develops standards for foodservice equipment

• design. All equipment, in a commercial kitchen, must be

built according to NSF standards Specific Items Floors and walls are constructed of the apprpriate

• materials. Floors are quarry tile and wall are painted
• block. These surfaces have held resnobly well with

exception to the floor adjacent to the in floor grease trap. The ceilings are in tough shape. They are painted concrete but the surface is not smooth. There are may sufaces and building systems where grease and dust do accumulate. The following are other observations we noted during our site visit. Image 1: The walk-in freezer on the right is older than the added walk-in cooler shown on the right. The

Image 1 1 Image 2

NAUSET REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL FOODSERVICE ASSESSMENT smaller cooler was added after the fact. Both compartments are undersized and offer very limited storage capacity. Image 2: A close up of the walk-in freezer panels shows a deterioration of the insulated panel. The thin metal skin of the panels is corroding through. As moisture enters the interior of the panel the insulation begins to degrade, and the R-value of the panel becomes inadequate. The Health code requires that the gap at the top of the walk-in coolers be sealed off to the adjacent surfaces as a way to eliminate areas where debris can accumulate. Image 3: The storage shelving used in the storage area is not Health Code complaint or NSF approved since it is made of wood. The health code does not allow exposed piping to be run above stored items. A lay in ceiling is needed in this area to seal off the equipment and piping above. Image 4: The lighting level in the kitchen is not adequate. There is also no washable surface between the food preparation are and the duct work above. Exposed duct work, conduits, and building structure is visible. The food code calls for the ceilings above a food preparation zones to be smooth, durable, and easily cleaned. The exposed items here do not allow for easy cleaning. Image 5: A wood cutting board can be seen in this image. Wood topped work surfaces are not allowed in kitchens according the Food Code unless it is being used in conjunction with dough preparation as part

Technology

• Cabling systems have been incrementally installed over the

life of the campus, do not refmect current standards, and are not positioned to support the continued expansion of wireless and higher capacity network communications

• The campus fjber optic backbone is functioning and is

capable of supporting some of the expanded requirements

• f a renovation project.
• The wireless networking provides adequate coverage in

most of the campus but is not positioned to provide the expanded capacity, coverage, and capabilities that are required by emerging technologies

• The AV systems are a mix of displays, projectors, and audio

systems that have grown over the life of the campus; most

• f the systems are close to or are at their life expectancy
