Land Development Experience

Hoffman Summit Wind Project - Tehachapi Mountains, California

Hoffman Summit is a proposed 150 Megawatt wind energy project containing 100 ~ 1.5 MW General Electric turbine sites, GE turbines being proposed at the time of the study. Preliminary civil engineering efforts were needed to allow environmental professionals to focus their energy on smaller corridors of ultimately disturbed land. The design consists of approximately 40 miles of access roads, and site engineering for a batch plant, substation, and operations and maintenance facilities.

Wind Project Feasibility Analysis - Mojave Desert, California

This task consisted of multiple sites in very early stages of development. We were able to visit these sites, make sound civil engineering judgments on feasibility, and constructability. Through base map compilation, including topography and aerials we were able to create 3D modeling which showed the client some of the more costly areas in regards to civil engineering.

French Valley Power Plant - Winchester, California

French Valley is a 20 acre, General Electric gas turbine generator power plant in which grading studies were performed to give the client an idea of cost and layout.

Rubbermaid Distribution Center, Buildings 13A, 1 and 15A & 15B - Victorville, California

These Industrial Distribution Centers are part of a master-planned 5,000 acre multimodal business space, logistics and industrial park with, integrated air cargo, rail, ground and port access. Significant coordination, design and managerial efforts were performed in providing permit processing, civil engineering construction documentation and required survey/mapping services. Final approvals and project entitlements were awarded and each facility was constructed and is fully operational.

Space Center Industrial Project

The Space Center Industrial Project consisted of a 1 million SF industrial building in Victorville, California. Engineering services were requested in order to obtain approvals within the planning phase of the project. These services included boundary surveys, topographical surveys, preliminary hydrology reports, and preliminary grading and drainage designs.

Casa de Amparo - Twin Oaks, California

This project is a 16 acre civic project which consists of an administrative building and cottages for abused and neglected children. The project was slated to be a charitable project marking the contract down to an at cost contract being that we were working for a nonprofit organization.

California State University San Marcos - San Marcos, California

The new campus police station at CSUSM is a proposed LEED Platinum rated San Marcos Police Department branch facility. The site civil engineering was a challenge in innovation due to the fact that we were trying to capture LEED points in the site civil category. Innovative ideas were used for drainage attenuation.

Quarry Creek - Oceanside, California

Completed in 2004, this proposed 35 net acre, retail power center, is over 300,000 square feet of building area. Owners include Albertsons, Kohl's, Wal-Mart, Wells Fargo, California Coast Credit Union, as well as, restaurants and retail shops.

Honda Car Dealership & Nissan Car Dealership - Victorville, California

These car dealerships required civil engineering services throughout every stage of entitlement. Both project sites are contiguous to the interstate 15 freeway in Victorville, California. Permitting was required by local agencies as well as by California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). Final approvals and project entitlements were awarded and both facilities were constructed and are fully operational.

4S Ranch - San Diego, California

4S Ranch is located on 2,900 acres adjacent to Rancho Bernardo in the County of San Diego. This project features 4,715 homes clustered around 4S Commons, a traditional town center. Additional neighborhood amenities include four neighborhood schools, a variety of parks, miles of walking trails and more than 1,600 acres of protected open space.

La Costa Condominiums - La Costa, California

This condominium project is an 8.2 acre, hillside development overlooking La Costa Resort. Because it is a hillside development, environmental and grading constraints played a large role in how the project was laid out and developed.

Winchester Ranch - Winchester, California

Winchester Ranch is a proposed four tract, 78 acre, attached unit condo development. Civil engineering consisted of infrastructure roads, utilities, and in-tract improvements.

Bella Sol - Winchester, California

Bella Sol is a proposed 14.3 acre, mix of detached and attached unit condos and townhomes. Improvements consisted of grading, roads, utilities, and major channel protection plans for flood control.
