Valley View Ave Interchange – La Mirada, CA
Summit Environmental Contractors was awarded the Valley View Interchange Project for the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in District 7 . The project consisted of the widening of both the Valley View overcrossing and the I-5 freeway.
Summit’s scope of services included the completion of the following plans:
- Site-Specific Health and Safety Plan
- Sampling and Analysis Plan
- Excavation Plan & Transportation Plan
- Stockpile Management Plan
The field services Summit provided included the sampling and analytical testing for 1,200 stockpiles and 6,000 samples, soil characterization, transportation and disposal for more than 42,000 tons of contaminated material. In addition, Summit performed dewatering, sampling and disposal for more than 400,000 gallons of contaminated liquid. Maintaining the project site is crucial for completing jobs on time and on budget. If water overflows and causes an unsafe work environment, not only can the project be pushed back, but also it increases the chances of personnel onsite getting injured or exposed to unsafe liquids.
