Description

This project is a continuation of the North Mercer Island/Enatai Sewer Upgrade. After sewer pipes were replaced on the south Bellevue shoreline underneath the I-90 bridge, the shoreline material was replaced with new material that will enhance habitat for salmon and other species.

Materials

Over 800 tons Streambed Sediment

Super Sacks of the following products:
  • 490 tons of CSTC
  • 460 tons of Streambed Sediment
  • 160 tons of Beach Rock Type 2 or 3 (Product Code 0220-3)

Highlights

Washington Rock's bagged sand was used to section off the Bellevue shoreline, allowing fish and other aquatic species to be relocated outside the work zone. Old material was removed from the shoreline and replaced with our state-spec Streambed Sediment. The streambed sediment will provide enhanced habitat for salmon and other species.

Throughout the course of the entire North Mercer Island/Enatai sewer update, we have provided over 4,000 tons of Streambed Sediment and many other materials.

We were able to accommodate diverse transportation requirements, including barge shipping, direct shipping via dump trucks, and freight shipping for palletized Super Sack sandbags. Washington Rock worked with American Construction, JJH Construction, and Walsh Construction Co. to supply and deliver materials.
