Huitt-Zollars is leading a multi -disciplined team in the preparation of an overall Master Plan and Phase 1 <br />construction documents for a new 500-acre national cemetery for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). <br />The construction budget for Phase 1, including a "fast -track" initial Phase 1A, is $15.6 million. HZ is providing <br />civil, structural, mechanical and electrical engineering, and plumbing design, and is coordinating the cemetery <br />planning, architecture, landscape architecture, irrigation design, geotechnical and environmental services, and <br />cost estimating. This cemetery will be one of six new cemeteries added to VA's 126 existing national cemeteries. <br />Phase 1 construction will include a Public Information Center/Administration Building, a Maintenance Building <br />and yard, an assembly area, a committal shelter, and internment areas for 1,700 traditional casket burial sites, <br />4,000 pre -placed concrete crypts, 500 in -ground cremain burial sites, and 3,000 columbarium niches. The <br />challenges of this complex, large-scale project included optimizing grading with geological conditions and <br />constraints; preparation and processing of an environmental jurisdictional determination with USACE and CDFG; <br />coordination of utility service extensions from a proposed water well to the site; and developing landscape <br />planting and irrigation strategies to optimize use of the limited supply of available groundwater. <br />CLIENT CONTACT: <br />US Department of Veterans <br />Affairs <br />National Cemetery <br />Administration <br />Clifford Schem <br />1301 Clay Street, Suite <br />1230N <br />Oakland, CA 94612 <br />510,637,6270 <br />RELEVANT DESIGN <br />COMPONENETS: <br />Water Well Design <br />Sewer Design <br />Domestic Water Design <br />Irrigation Water Design <br />HUIT MOLLARS <br />City of Santa On -Call Water Resources Engineering Services RFP No. 19-100 11 <br />
