Scope Of Work
The Veterans Administration has completed a 12-acre early burial area with temporary facilities (Phase 1A) to be followed by a second construction stage of the project (Phase 1B). When completed, the 64-acre Phase 1 development will provide 15,500 full casket gravesites, including 15,100 pre-placed crypts, and 6,500 in-ground cremation sites and 4,100 columbarium niches. The new cemetery will also include an administration and public information center complex and public restrooms, a maintenance facility, a cemetery entrance area, a flag assembly area, and committal shelters for funeral services. Other infrastructure design elements include roadways, landscaping, utilities, and irrigation. Earth Engineering Incorporated conducted a complete subsurface investigation and construction quality control for the Cemetery. The design elements that were evaluated include structures, drives and paving, a proposed pond and burial vaults.
