Facilities San Diego and Chula Vista, CA
July 2001 to June 2003

Design expansion of existing facilities at Imperial Avenue Division and South Bay Maintenance Facility, including adding 1500 SCFM compressor systems at each location, as well as integration of emergency-shutdown systems and new dispensers with new and existing compressor systems. Includes preparation of '60% design-build' construction drawings and performance-based specifications, review and approve contractor's drawings and submittals for materials and methods, as well as oversee construction and startup of fueling facility for conformance to bid specifications. Also facilitate facility-use training, vehicle-fueling training and specifications for a facility preventative-maintenance contract. Fuel Solutions worked as a subconsultant to a general engineering-design firm for this project.

Budgetary estimate for construction and equipment installation for both facilities: $1,453,110 (equipment was procured separately and previously); award amount for construction and equipment installation: $1,448,240.
