Utility Infrastructure Replacement and Seismic Strengthening (UIR-SS)

Utility Infrastructure Replacement and Seismic Strengthening (UIR-SS)

The UIR/SS was a fully state funded project that replaced an extensive amount of underground utilities across campus and also provided several system upgrades to the Applied Technology Building, as well as underground utility infrastructure campus wide.  This larger project was 8 smaller projects combined. 

  • Project #1 is a complete replacement of the Waste Water Treatment Plant.  This new plant will allow the College to provide on-site discharge thus reducing operational costs and providing a much lower risk of environmental impact. 
  • Project #2 is the installation of two new water storage tanks near the softball field to replace the older tanks located up behind the college. 
  • Project #3 is a replacement of the main sewer, water and electrical systems and the construction of a new 12KV infrastructure building that will house a new main switchgear panel. 
  • Project #4 is a consolidation of the College IT systems into one location in the LRC which will include backup power. 
  • Project #5 Is an upgrade to the campus cabling system which carries all data and phone systems. 
  • Project #6 is an upgrade of the building fire alarm systems throughout campus. 
  • Project 7 includes an upgrade to the campus energy management system that allows for greater environmental control of campus buildings. 
  • Project #8 is a renovation of many areas of the Applied Technology Building that includes ADA, HVAC, Doors/Locks and area roof replacement upgrades.

Project reached completion November 2023.
