Thanks to our 2022 Summer Tour Guides
​and Attendees!
Project Overview:
Utilizing the CMGC project delivery method, this facility consists of six underground concrete tanks that can hold up to 4.5 million gallons of water that is collected and stored during heavy storms, gradually discharging as the drainage system catches up.   A short presentation by Kraemer-Nicholson Joint Venture illustrated project highlights and current completed work, providing tour attendees additional insight prior to the official site tour.  A tour of the field and work area included a first-hand look at the ongoing storage tank liner work and minor tunneling, upper passageway, and elbow construction.
