Primary facilities include the Ground Transport Equipment Building, Organizational Vehicle Parking, and special foundations including vibration-isolation seismic mass foundations and specialized equipment flooring. An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) connection, and Energy Monitoring Control Systems (EMCS) connection are included. Heating and cooling will be provided by self-contained systems. Supporting facilities include site development, utilities, lighting, paving, storm drainage, information systems, landscaping, and signage.
