Water Infrastructure Projects
GMU has worked closely with numerous water districts throughout Southern California, including and the Irvine Ranch and Santa Margarita water districts – the largest and second largest retail water providers in Orange County. Working with these and other water agencies, GMU has been integral in the completion of numerous water-related infrastructure projects throughout Southern California, including pipelines, reservoirs, lift stations and treatment facilities.
Horno Basin, Ladera Ranch
Client: Rancho Mission Viejo/County of Orange
Horno Basin flood-control facility provides stormwater filtration and detention capacity for the County or Orange, and also serves as wetlands habitat. GMU provided geotechnical design and construction services and performed groundwater studies for the project. We then worked with SMWD to create a system to pump water from the basin for irrigation use. GMU received ASCE’s 2004 Project of the Year Award for our efforts on this project. |
