Five utility replacement/renewal projects were identified on the state Capitol Campus as needing to be completed. Two replacement projects were failing sewer mains due to age and pipe material. The third project installed a new force main, pump system, and oil/water separator to drain the effluent from a newly installed washdown pad at the maintenance facility. The fourth project replaced a failing electrical vault lid that allowed stormwater to drain into the vault. The lid was replaced, raised, and a drain pipe was installed in the vault. The final project was the installation of new 12-inch water main, fire hydrants, backflow preventer, and metering system. SCJ expedited design and worked closely with the City of Olympia during review so the project could go out to bid promptly. The goal was to obtain substantial completion before Christmas to ensure that construction activities wouldn’t disturb the legislative session. This project was behind schedule before it started, but through our efforts and coordination with DES, buildings and ground crew, and the contractor, the project reached substantial completion before Christmas. SCJ renovated the sunken garden, coordinated ADA enhancements, and created a new path around the perimeter.
