American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) Simpson Road Sewer Pipeline Repair (EMWD), Menifee, CA. Principal in Charge. Provides technical oversight and budget control for the geotechnical observation and materials testing. The project consists of excavation and replacement of the upper portion of the backfill in a sewer pipeline trench along the approximate centerline of Simpson Road between Rose Meadow Drive and Lindenberger Road in Menifee, California. The subject sewer pipeline was installed in approximately 2007 at a depth of 6 to 8 feet below ground surface. In early 2012, cracking and settlement was observed in the asphalt concrete pavement overlying the sewer trench. Settlement of up to approximately an inch has occurred in some areas. Previously excavated test pits have encountered high moisture contents in the sub-grade soils. Perris Valley Pipeline, Metropolitan Water District, Perris, Riverside County, CA. Principal in Charge.

The project consisted of 4,450 linear feet of a new 12-inch PVC pipeline at Illinois Street from Strickland Avenue to the existing Lash Booster Pump Station and Lash Avenue. The pipeline will cross under Riverside Drive, designation at Highway 74, accomplished by jacking and boring a 20-inch steel casing under the road and inserting the 12-inch water pipeline inside. Benson Avenue Sewer Siphon, Chino, CA. Principal in Charge. Provided technical oversight and budget allocation for the materials testing and inspection services. The project consisted of installing approximately 544 linear feet of two 8-inch diameter HDPE pipes within a 24-inch diameter HDPE casing under the State Route (SR)-60 Freeway using the horizontal directional drilling (HDD) method. The bore hole size was 36-inch in diameter. The siphon inlet was at the intersection of Benson Avenue and Portsmouth Street and the outlet was at the intersection of Benson Avenue and Harrison Street. Quadrant II Water Main Replacement, Chino, CA. Principal in Charge. Provided technical oversight and budget allocation for the geotechnical investigation and materials testing and inspection services. The project was provided in phases and included the design of 5,098 linear feet of 8-inch diameter polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with a typical depth to pipeline invert of 50 inches below existing ground surface (bgs).
