Griffith Observatory Renovation and ExpansionProject
The Griffith Observatory is a world-class icon, a cultural landmarkof Los Angeles, and it appeared in many Hollywood movies. Theobservatory is a national leader in public astronomy with morethan two million visitors every year.
The project is the observatory's first major capital improvementsince its opening in 1935. The project's goal is to renovate andexpand the existing observatory from 27,302 sf. to 60,000 sf. Toaccount for the historical nature of the building, we decided toexpand the facility underground to retain the aesthetic quality ofthe historic facade and the front lawn. The expansion is achievedby underpinning the existing building and addition below theexisting front lawn.

HONORABLE MENTION AWARD WINNER
2007 Distinguished Project Awards
Mt. San Antonio Science Building
Category: Buildings
The project also includes an exhibit and demonstrationareas, including an interactive “exploratorium” andinstructional museum designed to promote scientificinquiry and exploration for students and the general pub-lic.
The new building included modern instructional labora-tories; student collaborative activity areas faculty, staff,and division offices; meeting and conference rooms; labo-ratory support areas, including stock rooms, specimenand supply storage, instrumentation and hazardous andpathogen materials control.
In addition, the project includes rooftop instructionalareas, including astronomical observation center, speci-men greenhouse, meteorological receiving stations, anddemonstration solar panel array; instructional equipmentlaboratory instrumentation, classroom technology, andfurnishings to support science programs.
The Science Building was required by Mt. San AntonioCollege to be open on August 28th, 2006 for the start ofthe fall session. This proved very difficult due to therecord rainfall Southern California experienced the win-ter of 2005. Weather delays of three months along with$1,500,000 in owner-added scope provided an interestingschedule challenge for the project team. The schedulewas recovered through re-sequencing the logic of theconstruction schedule, adding resources, both equipmentand manpower, as well as adjusting delivery dates onequipment.
As a result the schedule was met and students filled theseats in the new building as expected. The project teamof Phil Valadez, Superintendent; Jerry Jones, Senior
Project Manager; Chandra Sutton, Assistant ProjectManager; and Cindi Short, Project Engineer are to becongratulated for never giving up and for finding solu-tions to every problem that arose during those finalmonths.

fles, internal recycle pumps, mechanical mixers andadditional process monitoring and control equipmentin each of the 18 aeration basins. Additionally, the aer-ation system in each basin was replaced, with City-fur-nished aeration equipment, creating anoxic and aera-tion zones needed for the nitrogen removal treatmentprocess. This project also replaced the return activatedsludge (RAS) systems with larger capacity pumps, pip-ing and valves. DCT's power distribution system wasalso upgraded by the addition of motor control centers,electrical substations. All instrumentation and controlequipment was connected to DCT's computerized net-work distributed control system. DCT remained inoperation during this “overhaul” of its treatmentprocess.

City of San ClementeTalega Fire Station
Category: Buildings
The City of San Clemente has a new3,510-acre master planned communi-ty called Talega. This community sitsin the coastal hills North of the maincoastal part of the City. The City hadan existing fire station that served theNorth part of the City, but that sta-tion was only capable of housing oneengine company. With the develop-ment of the Talega community, anew, larger station was needed whichwas capable of housing two firefight-ing companies-be they engine ortruck.
2007 Distinguished Project Awards
What made the planning, design andconstruction of this new fire stationunique was the fact that the City ofSan Clemente contracts with theOrange County Fire Authority for fireservices, but the City owns the firestations located within its City limits.This situation only occurs in oneother city out of the 22 cities thatreceive fire-fighting services fromOCFA. As such, during the plan-ning, design and construction of theTalega Fire Station, both the City ofSan Clemente and the OrangeCounty Fire Authority (OCFA) wereheavily involved.

Conversion of Costco Warehouseto New Magnolia Police StationThe City of Riverside conducted a search for a site to locatethe new Westside Police Precinct. During that search anexisting building was found that could potentially be con-verted into the police facility and thus save money as com-pared to building a brand new building from scratch. Thisexisting building was a former “Costco” warehouse that hadbeen closed and then subsequently acquired by Life Bank.Life Bank had converted half of this existing 104,000-square-foot warehouse into office space and had leased theother half out to an ice skating rink.
When the City of Riverside reviewed the Life Bank facility,they saw an existing facility of approximately 66,000 squarefeet, which had 56,000 square feet of office space and 10,000square feet of warehouse storage. This seemed like a naturalfit for a police precinct, which required both office spaceand a warehouse-type storage area for evidence/propertystorage. The City felt that it might be possible to just moveright in with minimal changes being made.
When the City of Riverside advertised for Statements ofQualifications for A/E Services for the conversion of theLife Bank facility into the City's new West Precinct PoliceFacility in October 2003, the City was looking for an A/Eteam that could design the conversion and one that couldpossibly manage the construction of the conversion. TheCity was also looking for a team that could complete the

design and construction within six months and for a prede-termined construction budget of $4.8 million. The City'santicipation of a quick schedule and small budget was basedon a concept of making minimal changes to the interior ofthe facility. The city's thought was to just repaint, recarpet,structurally upgrade to “essential facility” standards, andmove in.
As a result of the Statement of Qualifications submissionand follow-on shortlist interview, the ABS Consulting teamwas selected to perform the design and management theconstruction of the project envisioned as a simple, “patchand paint” project. The ABS Consulting team was selectedfor three prime reasons. First, it was lead by a structuralengineering firm; second, that same lead firm was also aprogram and construction management firm, and; third,during the shortlist interview, the team had presented a“fast-track” approach and a design concept that potentiallywould complete the project in nine months (six months wasnot achievable in the team's opinion), and within the $4.8million construction budget.

American River College Learning Resource CenterThis project was intended to modernize and expand anexisting campus facility to meet the ever-increasing needsand numbers of students.
When meeting with the architect and builder, the collegehad several priorities and concerns. The four main goals ofthis project were to expand the facility to accommodate theLearning Resource Center, Beacon program andESL/Foreign Language Programs, to reconfigure the existingLRC to support specialized reading and writing programs with-in the Humanities department, link multiple disciplinesback to a common center at the Learning Resources Centerand create a singular and unique statement for this forward-looking multidisciplinary program.The majority of scope changes were due to existing under-ground utilities and subsurface site conditions that were notknown at the time of construction. Numerous utilitiesrequired relocation as well as structural changes to thefoundation to accommodate unknown subsurface condi-tions. The existing LRC built in the 1960's also had severalunanticipated hidden conditions that required additionalwork by the contractor.
