4 Loop Expansion Project Rationale 4

5 MDC s Central Support Loop Original configuration and physical description Built in 1984 and serves 2.5 million ft 2 Serves many of the county downtown facilities and one county-operated facility 6,000 tons capacity Expansion of plant to its current full capacity 7,500 tons chiller capacity 5

6 Central Support Facility 6

7 MDC s North Loop Original configuration as photographed 3,500 tons chiller capacity 1,300 tons ice production capacity 17,280 ton-hours ice storage capacity Two phases of expansion of plant to its current full capacity 8,500 tons chiller capacity 4,400 tons ice production capacity 51,840 ton-hours ice storage capacity 7

8 MDC s Thermal Plant Three fully built out ice vaults Custom built coils from Baltimore Air Coil Modular construction and assembly Hot dip galvanized for an expected minimum service life of 30 years 8
