Locker and restroom space for procedural requirements of this area are also within phase I renovation area. Phase II includes an addition to BIVAP as well as renovation within the existing building to accomplish research space expansion along with additional Pilot Plant equipment storage. 10 assignable research laboratory areas are shown as part of the phase II work in order to supplement the available core research and partnership research areas across the KSU campus. Phase III scope of the work is focused on the northwest corner of the existing BIVAP facility with a 2-story addition that will accomplish dedicated areas for partnership research space. BIVAP Phase I funded construction to be completed by July 2027. KSU is soliciting design services for Phase I services.
