SAN GABRIEL VALLEY : Contract for Seismic Work on Dam Awarded
Los Angeles County supervisors Tuesday awarded a contract for seismic retrofitting on the San Gabriel Dam.
Upland-based Advanco Constructors won a $2.2-million job to reinforce the outlet tower of the San Gabriel Dam with structural steel and concrete. The firm’s bid was $932,871 higher than what county staff had estimated it would cost to do the work, said Public Works Director Tom Tidemanson. The contract requires Advanco to complete the retrofitting in 75 working days. In preparation, Department of Public Works crews have lowered the water level in the Angeles National Forest reservoir near Glendora.
