During an improvement project at Lawler Middle School a new athletic track field was added to the school. In order to avoid athletic injuries, an efficient surface runoff solution was needed. With capture and rapid removal of sheet flow critical to the athletes' safety, Slotted Drain™ was selected as the best option.
After it was determined that an existing culvert was impeding passage of the trispot darter fish, which is threatened under the Endangered Species Act, a Big R® Rolled Girder was chosen as the best replacement.
When the decking surface of the 280th Avenue bridge over Jonathan Creek had met its usable design life, the county selected Bridge Plank as the most cost effective rehabilitation solution.
During a redevelopment project at the Sacramento Railyards, a former Union Pacific rail yard, a stormwater treatment system with a small footprint was needed. Engineers selected the Filterra Bioretention System based on its long-term cost-effectiveness and easy maintenance.
When a deteriorating bridge on Gann Road over Cooper Lake Creek was replaced with a Big R® Steel Rolled Girder, ArmorFlex® Class 45 Mats and A-Jacks® products were utilized to control the scour around the bridge abutments.

New International Stormwater BMP Database Report Improves Resolution of Manufactured Treatment Device Performance
Since its inception in 1996, The International Stormwater BMP Database has been archiving performance, design, and cost data for stormwater treatment best management practices (BMPs) in a publicly accessible database. At this point, over 600 BMP studies have been added, providing a wealth of information to regulators, engineers, academics, and others seeking to understand and improve the state of the art of stormwater management. At the end of 2020, a new report was published that summarizes data made available in the December 2019 release of the database.
Please join Contech Engineered Solutions as we discuss design solutions and methods for the structural rehabilitation of storm drains, sanitary sewers, culverts, and bridge structures. Typically, when drainage infrastructure reaches the end of a useful service life, the decision to excavate and replace is commonplace. But replacing these structures can be costly and disruptive. Rehabilitation or relining of culverts, storm sewers and small bridges can be a faster and less expensive option that imparts little to no impact on traffic maintenance.
