## Description

The Rifle Bunkhouse is a temporary housing accommodation for seasonal and permanent new-hire employees working in the Rifle Ranger District (RRD) of the White River National Forest (WRNF). The bunkhouse siding is composed of wood panels approximately 4’x10’ in size that have been cut to fit. The material has been weathered due to the sun and dry conditions with little shade providing protection. The lower portion of the bunkhouse siding below the sill plates consists of stucco/foam-type material.

Some birds have created holes in the wooden siding and made nests in the wood framed wall cavities. The windows are also heavily weathered, with failing seals and need replacement. The work for this project consists of removing the current siding and related window trim from the bunkhouse, along with any damaged plywood sheathing underneath. The damaged plywood will be replaced, and a weather resistant house wrap will be installed around the building.

Non-fixed windows will be replaced with vinyl windows and properly sealed/flashed from water intrusion. Cement fiber siding, trim, and a drip edge will be installed above trim, windows, and siding transitions as appropriate. Old unnecessary trim features around windows and building walls shall be removed and new trim and siding will be installed in a clean and simple fashion that matches the aesthetic of the adjacent Rifle District office building. The new siding will be painted with a color matching the Rifle District office building.
