China Lake Naval Air Weapons Center

This $4.9 million dollar project involved the demolition of 63 buildings located in the Naval Air Weapons Center , China Lake, California. These buildings were located throughout the base and covered three counties, Inyo, Kern and San Bernardino. NESHAP notifications for abatement and demolition were required for each building. Each building was inspected and cleared by an Air Pollution Control Representative and Base Environmental before each building was demolished to avoid contamination and safety hazards that associated with a building that contains Asbestos Contaminated Materials (ACM) and lead material. The scope of this work was to abate, demolish and grade to drain 63 buildings as follows 1) assessment of abatement, 2) capping of utilities, 3) abatement of lead base paint and asbestos containing materials and 4) tear down and haul off building debris and restore site. Throughout this project we successfully negotiated to abate and demolish additional buildings including a hospital. Most construction debris such as wood wash hauled to landfill, concrete was recycled. JIG took a full responsible role in this project by conducting environmental surveys, designing work plans, regulatory notifications, full abatement demolition, recycling and waste reduction. JI Garcia Construction, Inc.'s past experience in this type of demolition projects made this project more economical for the Owner
