Business Wire
Granite (NYSE: GVA) has announced the signing of a $34 million
contract to implement seismic improvements to the Oakland
International Airport (OAK) Perimeter Dike. This critical
infrastructure project is designed to protect the airport runway
from water intrusion from the adjacent San Francisco Bay. Project
funding comes in part from the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) and will be included in Granite’s third-quarter CAP.
The primary objective of this project is to enhance the seismic
resilience of 4,200 LF of the OAK perimeter dike by utilizing a
cement deep soil mixing construction solution (CDSM). This
technique will strengthen the levee wall soils and mitigate the
risk of dike failure in the event of a strong seismic event. Keller
North America, Inc, a leading geotechnical specialty subcontractor,
performed the CDSM scope. In addition to the 62,295 CY of CDSM
scope, other work includes clearing and grubbing, constructing
temporary work pads, installing wetlands protections, protecting
in-place existing fuel lines, and installing 2,100 CY of additional
rip rap revetment and aggregate base surfacing to restore the
existing perimeter road.
“This project is a strategic win for Granite as we continue to
build our portfolio of work with the Port of Oakland,” said Brent
Fogg, Granite Vice President of Regional Operations. “The technical
challenges and restricted access of this project will require
meticulous logistical planning to ensure an efficient and safe
workflow and zero impact on Airport Operations.”
The project is expected to begin in Q1 2025 and be completed in
Q3 2026.
