Project Overview

VanCon excavated and poured a 37-AC-FT reservoir with underdrain to collect groundwater. VanCon installed 4,100 feet of wrapped and perforated 6-inch and 220 feet of 12-inch HDPE piping to collect pond water and groundwater and built a pump station with four 200 HP pumps to move the two water sources into the irrigation system. VanCon also installed 113,000 feet of 18-inch storm drain ADS, 1,700 feet of 24-inch ductile iron, 1,700 feet of 36-inch RCP, and 1,700 feet of 36-inch HDPE storm drainpipe into the road with a bore leading to the road tie-in. The project had extensive groundwater and dewatering was intensive throughout the excavation.

VanCon helped design and build a 3.28 MG concrete irrigation tank with an altitude vault, installed 7,000 feet of 24-inch ductile iron pipe, and built a pump station with two 200 HP vertical turbine pumps. Design assistance included mirroring the altitude vault and adjusting valves to navigate around existing infrastructure.

VanCon built a 3.26 MG open-top irrigation water tank with connection to pressurized irrigation pipes, an access road, a riprap-lined drainage path, and 200 linear feet of new pressured irrigation pipe. VanCon provided value engineering to replace a section of the ravine behind the tank with an underground pipe and two manholes, depositing excavated fill to create a level surface around the tank and enable vac truck access for future maintenance.

This project was bid during a period of material volatility when many budgets were unprepared for inflationary pricing. VanCon worked with the city to create alternative design engineering solutions, saving the city almost two million dollars and enabling the project to continue on schedule. VanCon excavated and poured a 37-AC-FT reservoir with underdrain to collect groundwater, installed 4,100 feet of wrapped perforated 6-inch and 220 feet of 12-inch HDPE piping to collect pond water and groundwater, and built a pump station with four 200 HP pumps. VanCon also installed 113,000 feet of 18-inch storm drain ADS, 1,700 feet of 24-inch ductile iron, 1,700 feet of 36-inch RCP, and 1,700 feet of 36-inch HDPE storm drainpipe into the road with a bore leading to the road tie-in.
