The City of San Diego called Orion as an emergency design-build contractor after the 16″ waterline on F Street and 17th Street ruptured. Orion immediately deployed crews to secure the area and begin designing and constructing a permanent solution. Orion installed temporary water for the affected residences and businesses to ensure continued uninterrupted services. Orion installed 1,575 lineal feet of new 16″ watermain, valves, and appurtenances.
This project won an Honor Award from the American Public Works Association.
