We are thrilled to receive the following awards:
ENGEO performed geotechnical engineering services for the site redevelopment, including seismic engineering for the proposed residential and commercial buildings.

ENGEO is the geotechnical engineer for the Potrero Power Station Shoreline Stabilization project. As part of our role, we provided recommendations for ground improvement along the shoreline to provide seismic resiliency to the development. In addition, our work has included preparing design-level geotechnical recommendations for streets and infrastructure, future buildings, retrofit of existing buildings and facilities, and a new recreation dock.
ENGEO provided permitting support, prepared construction plans, and provided testing and observation services for the project. The 72-inch culvert underneath the entrance road to the Oakland Zoo suddenly and unexpectedly collapsed during a rainstorm on December 31, 2022, which closed operations at the Zoo until the repair was completed. ENGEO worked with City of Oakland Staff and a contractor to obtain emergency permits from Federal and State agencies, re-construct the culvert, and re-open the entrance road to the Zoo in approximately 3.5 weeks.

ENGEO performed geotechnical services for the project, including a geotechnical report consisting of field exploration, laboratory testing, analysis, and reporting of geotechnical recommendations for levee improvement design and construction. Our work also included geotechnical testing and observation during construction.
