Scope Of Work
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Western Pump designed and built the entire fueling system for this new ground-up gas station, convenience store, and car wash project. Three (3) 30,000-gallon, and one (1) 15,000-gallon Underground Storage Tanks (USTs), and twelve (12) Fuel Dispensers (24 fueling positions) were installed along with an 8,832-s.f. Canopy Structure with energy efficient LED lighting. Western Pump self-performed 100% of the fuel system mechanical and electrical design, permitting, excavation, shoring, dewatering, tank installation, backfilling, canopy footings, trenching, product/vapor/vent piping, fuel system electrical (above and below ground), submersible pump installation, fuel dispenser installation, monitoring system installation, Phase-I and Phase-II vapor recovery system installation, POS System installation, intercom system installation, canopy lighting electrical, fuel system pre-testing and final testing, certification, start-up and initialization of equipment with certified technicians, meter calibration, employee training, and clean-up.
PROJECT TEAM: TRAVIS Companies served as Western Pump's design and engineering consultant on the project, and Calcraft Corporation served as a subcontractor to install/erect the Canopy Structure.
CHALLENGES & RESOLUTIONS: Existing hard pan, caliche, and cobbles were encountered during excavation (the geotechnical report did not indicate this). Western Pump worked together with Haskell to mitigate the negative impacts on the project schedule by bringing-in additional heavy equipment and by negotiating a fair rate for the additional labor that was necessary to overcome this obstacle.
TESTIMONIAL: “Western Pump performed very well. They provided welcome expertise and guidance both on the technical elements as well as permitting. The work was completed safely and with a high-level of quality. Western Pump overcame some difficult site conditions and completed the work ahead of schedule. I look forward to the opportunity to work with them again.” THE HASKELL COMPANY
