Objective


Construct 4 new groundwater supply well stations and new chemical dosing station within the City limits to increase local groundwater supply.

Challenge


Working at 5 separate sites often times concurrently dramatically increased the complexities of keeping the project as a whole running smoothly and efficiently.  In addition working within the city involves added restrictions such as limited working days due to events in Golden Gate Park as well as hitting important project goals of working with LBE companies with less experience that require additional supervision to ensure a quality product is provided to the client.

Result


Provide between 2 to 3 million gallons per day of local groundwater to residents helping to bolster the resilience of the overall water supply system in the event of droughts and emergencies.
