The Northeast Regional Corrections Center (NERCC) campus facilities are of various ages and in varying conditions. The overall infrastructure has numerous components and systems that are at the critical needs stage and/or at the end of their useful lifecycle. There are many building systems that are close to failure and very inefficient. This project would make the campus more energy efficient, improve the cost-effectiveness of operations, and upgrade building systems to current life and safety standards. Investing in this asset preservation ensures the future viability of this correctional facility meeting the needs of the Northeast region of the state. NERCC Administration and St. Louis County Property Management have identified the following project areas: 1. Please see the attached detailed project list identifying specific NERCC outbuilding issues and costs, and the NERCC campus map which correlates to the buildings numbered 1 through 42. Items 43 through 54 identify broader infrastructure projects. 8) Square Footage: For new construction projects, identify the new square footage planned. For remodeling, renovation or expansion projects, identify the total square footage of current facilities, the square footage to be renovated, and/or the new square footage to be added. Total NERCC Campus Acreage: 3,200 acres. The attached campus map details the square footage of each building. The proposed project includes both remodeling and new construction of some of the campus outbuildings. Included in this request is approximately 17,000 square feet of new construction and approximately 60,000 square feet of remodeling / upgrading. III. Project Financing The following table describing the total amount of financial resources needed and the proposed uses of funds must be submitted for each project. Enter amounts in thousands ($100,000 should be entered as $100). Enter the amount of state funding requested on the line State GO Bonds Requested. Uses of Funds must show how all funding sources will be used, not just the state funding requested. In most cases, the state share should not exceed 50% of the total project cost.

Other Project Information

10) Project schedule. Identify the date (month/year) when construction crews are expected to first arrive on site, and the date (month/year) when construction will be completed with a certificate of occupancy.

(For facilities projects, this information will also be used to calculate an inflation cost, us in the Building Projects Inflation Schedule posted on the Minnesota Management and Budget website. 11) Predesign. For projects with a total construction cost of $1.5 million or more: Has a project predesign been completed? __X__ Yes _____ No If so, has the predesign been submitted to the Commissioner of Administration? _____ Yes _X___ No 12) State operating subsidies. Identify any new or additional state operating dollars that will be requested for this project. (Specify the amount and year, if applicable). None identified at this time. 13) Sustainable building guidelines. Discuss how the project meets or exceeds the Minnesota Sustainable Building Guidelines established under Minnesota Statutes, section 16B.325, which may be found at http://www.msbg.umn.edu/. These are now mandatory for all new buildings or major renovations receiving state bond funding. The Minnesota Sustainable Building Guidelines have been reviewed and this project will meet or exceed the requirements of that statute. Priority is being given to upgrading lighting, heating, and ventilation systems to be more energy efficient and cost effective while meeting all life and safety codes. This practice is also consistent with our internal policy requirements for all new construction and remodeling projects. 14) Sustainable building designs. Explain the extent to which the project will use sustainable building designs, if applicable. When bidding any project, St. Louis County Property Management and Purchasing insist that architects design each project with sustainability, energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness in mind (over the long term). Property Management tracks the performance of all of the buildings it manages and is motivated to ensure appropriate sustainable building design elements have been considered and implemented where possible on each project it manages. This project will follow this same practice. 15) Resolution of support and priority designation. Has the governing body of the applicant passed a resolution of support (which indicates the projects priority number if the applicant is submitting multiple requests)? _____ Yes __X__ No If so, please attach the signed resolution. If not, please indicate when the resolution will be coming (and forward the resolution to MMB when available): _August of, 2013.
