Our 4458-Hathaway Oyster Pt. project has been a challenging project that has required our underground, grading, and landscape groups to work hand-in-hand to successfully build this project.
Each section of the project has been anything but routine, but with the leadership of Project Manager,
Michael Alcantara, Senior Project Engineer, Clayton Cowperthwait, and our General Superintendents,
Nate Fox, Karl Herzer, and Mike Haley we have been able to overcome the roadblocks and obstacles in
our way.
The project is on an old landfill so it requires an added level of care and expertise to build the project.
Without a doubt, we could not have built this project without Filiberto Jasso. Filiberto has been tasked
with leading our grading group in building extremely complicated and intricate stainless steel gabion
walls that serves as a large retaining wall as well as an architectural statement landscape feature for the
project.
The majority of the underground work was installed with John Sabia’s crew. Much of the pipe was HDPE
fusion welded pipe which complicates the installation. John and crew successfully installed the water,
sewer, storm, gas as well as installed a storm water pump station to handle large storm events.
After many delays, our largest scope on the project, the irrigation and planting work, is just underway.
Gustavo Pimentel has received and placed over 75+ large trees on the project and will continue to be
instrumental in managing our landscape operations. With the help from our partners at CF&T, we have
been able to place (belt) over 3,000 yards of import topsoil on the project.
