Joint Outfall Trunk Sewer Rehabilitation Project – Carson, CA

Overview:  Summit has been awarded another contract with Spiniello Infrastructure West, Inc. This project is part of the Joint Outfall Trunk Sewer Rehabilitation Project in Carson, CA. The Joint Outfall “B” Unit 1A sewer rehab project was quite an impressive undertaking. The project was designed to rehabilitate a 12-ft-diameter, 1957-constructed sewer conveyance system that spanned a remarkable 5,100 ln. ft. The project utilized reinforced fiberglass polymer mortar pipes with curves and straight alignment under live flow conditions.

Scope of Work:

  • Clearing contaminated soil.
  • Delivery and pickup of bins for the collection and transport of materials.
  • Bin rental services for the duration of the project.
  • Supply and installation of bin liners to ensure proper containment.
  • Soil and material sampling and profiling for comprehensive analysis.

Project Execution: Summit Environmental Contractors successfully executed the project, ensuring the thorough cleaning of the sewer system, proper handling contaminated soil, and the delivery and retrieval of bins as needed. Bin rental services were efficiently managed, including the provision and installation of liners for secure containment.

Environmental Compliance: The Environmental Infrastructure Division adhered to stringent environmental standards throughout the project. Soil and material sampling and profiling were conducted meticulously to meet regulatory requirements and ensure the safe handling and disposal of contaminated soil.

Outcome: Summit Environmental Contractors, in retrospect, successfully completed the Joint Outfall “G” Unit 8 Trunk Sewer Rehabilitation Phase 1.

Orange County Feeder Relining Project – Orange & LA County, CA

 

Summit has been awarded another contract with Spiniello Infrastructure West, Inc. This project is part of the Orange County Feeder Relining Project with the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Metropolitan).

The Orange County Feeder (OFC) is 22 miles long, helping bring treated water to the LA and OC communities. The pipeline was installed in the 1940s with a coal tare enamel (CTE) lining.

The lining of these pipes is nearing the end of its life and needs replacement. Without proper replacement, CTE-related failures could cause shutdowns of the pipelines and contamination of its communities.

The current CTE is being replaced with an effective cathodic proposed system for corrosion prevention. This project will reline around 9.5 miles of mortar lining.

Summit is helping to analyze the site and has already disposed of 20.3 tons of contaminated and hazardous waste, with more on its way.

Our scope of work includes the following:

  • Site Investigation, Sampling & Waste Profiling.
  • Dewatering & Liquid Handling.
  • Transportation and Waste Disposal Services.
  • Material Sampling, Testing, and Characterization.

We are so grateful for the opportunities we have been given. Summit continues to do its part in creating safer environments for our families and making strides toward improving our infrastructure efficiently and cleanly.

Wilshire Area Sewer System Rehabilitation – Los Angeles, CA

 

 

Summit Environmental Contractors was awarded a contract from Spiniello Infrastructure West, Inc. for the Wilshire Area Sewer System Rehabilitation project by the City of Los Angeles Public Works. The project is located in Los Angeles, CA, and will include complete pipe restoration and removal of fallen tiles, debris, and other obstructions. By doing this, the pipe system receives an update in modernization that will increase the system’s longevity and safety for the community. 

Summit’s scope of work for this project includes :

  • Sampling & Analysis
  • Project and Site Management
  • Excavation and Disposal of Hazardous Materials
  • Bin Delivery & Transportation

Maintaining the project site is crucial for completing jobs on time and within budget. If water overflows and causes an unsafe work environment, not only can the project be pushed back, but it also increases the chances of personnel onsite getting injured or exposed to hazardous liquids. Summit provides liquid holding bins.
