Skeel Reservoir Renovation

The Skeel Reservoir Renovation contract involves the complete de‑commissioning of a historic high‑hazard earthen dam at the Wellshire Golf Course and conversion of the site into a 100‑year storm‑water detention facility with water‑quality controls, spillways, new HDPE piping, and upgraded irrigation for the golf course driving range. The scope includes extensive earthwork, removal of existing storm‑sewer and asbestos‑lined pipe, construction of concrete structures, extensive site grading and filling, installation of drainage underdrains, and comprehensive site restoration (seeding, mulching, and vegetation management). The project also mandates stringent environmental and safety plans, MWBE participation of at least 22 %, and compliance with prevailing‑wage and minimum‑wage regulations. • De‑commission and lower the existing 16.5‑ft earthen dam, install spillways, and convert the reservoir to a storm‑water detention basin. • Install ~900 LF of 18‑in. HDPE pipe, new irrigation system, and upgrade the driving range facilities. • Perform large‑scale earthwork, concrete work, pipe removal (including asbestos‑containing pipe), site clearing, and extensive landscaping/seed‑mix installation.
