Highway 33 reconstruction and sewer review

Street reconstruction and sewer environmental review should remain separate in a bid forecast. The design stage does not establish revenue for a business. For an awarded road scope, collect approved hours by task and retain subcontractor invoices under the same project reference, supporting both cost review and certified payroll preparation.

  • Highway 33 Complete Streets Project (Elm & Polk reconstruction, three-lane reconfiguration Cherry to 5th, curb ramps, crosswalks, lighting, flashing beacons). Source status (2026): 90% design; construction Apr-Oct 2026. Agency: City of Coalinga (Caltrans funding).
  • Sanitary sewer collection system and WWTP improvements (rehab ~30,815 LF and replace ~19,801 LF of gravity sewer mains, WWTP repairs). Source status (2026): Mitigated Negative Declaration in public review Aug-Sep 2026. Agency: City of Coalinga.

Reservoir reconstruction and smart-meter installation

Reservoir upgrades and widespread meter installation use different material and labor patterns. Track tank-related purchases by milestone and meter work by the applicable work order. An owner can then compare progress billings with costs incurred without combining a single major asset project with many smaller installation assignments.

  • Derrick Reservoir tank shell & roof reconstruction; WTP raw water intake and chlorine room upgrades (Water Bond Funds). Source status (2025): In construction 2024-2025. Agency: City of Coalinga.
  • Citywide AMI smart water meter replacement. Source status (2026): In construction Aug 2024 - Aug 2026. Agency: City of Coalinga.
