24-inch Putah South Canal Emergency Raw Water Repair
Benicia, CA
DCCM provided construction management and full-time inspection services for the City of Benicia’s 24-inch Putah South Canal Emergency Raw Water Repair Project. The emergency repair addressed a critical raw water transmission line extending from private property near Watt Court, beneath Interstate 80, and into City of Fairfield property. Due to the pipeline’s importance and its location within a major transportation corridor, the project required accelerated construction, careful coordination, and strict traffic control and safety oversight.
Construction activities included traffic control along the westbound shoulder of Interstate 80, excavation of entry and exit pits, slip lining of an 18-inch fusible PVC pipe, hydrostatic testing, and full site restoration. DCCM supported the City throughout all phases of construction, providing daily field inspection, documentation, safety compliance monitoring, and traffic control oversight to ensure work conformed to project plans, specifications, and regulatory requirements.
Construction management services included coordination with City staff, the contractor, property owners, and the design team; administration of submittals, RFIs, and change orders; cost and schedule monitoring; and preparation of progress reports and pay estimate recommendations. DCCM also supported project closeout by verifying punch list completion, reviewing record drawings, and delivering complete construction documentation. The project was successfully completed under emergency conditions while maintaining safety, quality, and schedule objectives.
