City of Los Angeles Zoo
Water Reclamation Plant
DACM Project Management provided services during the planning and design of a major expansion to increase capacity and improve effluent quality (addition of the C-502 and C-503 units) at this City of Los Angeles facility located in the San Fernando Valley near Griffith Park. We reviewed project specifications, and developed telemetry and control systems designed to interface coordination criteria not only within the Zoo itself but in conjunction with the other wastewater treatment facilities within the City system .During the construction process, DACM Project Management provided a wide array of services which included project controls and construction contractor interface coordination. Our role also included quality control / quality assurance inspections, coordination and oversight of the communications systems installation, and review of the operations computer software modifications.
As a final service, We were responsible for coordinating and supervising the installation of the alarm system instrumentation associated with the Zoo’s wastewater facility. As construction was completed and the facility transitioned into an operating mode, we reviewed Operations and Maintenance Manuals, developed and reviewed procedures for testing control systems, interfaced with other facilities relative to emergency operations during startup, and reviewed calibration and startup procedures.
