    ? Spotlight on a 2025 ACEC WA Engineering Excellence Awards State Gold winner! DLR Group your Green Hill School Wellness and Recreation Center for WA Department of Children, Youth, and Families won the top prize in the Social, Economic and Sustainable Design Considerations Category! The original recreation building at Green Hill School in the City Of Chehalis no longer suited the needs of its residents due to safety concerns, poor sightlines, deteriorating materials, and structural issues. The goal was to re-imagine an institutional environment that would have a positive social impact on the youth residing at the state-operated, medium/maximum juvenile facility where residents work to develop new habits and healthy skills. The new Green Hill School Wellness & Recreation Center now serves as the heart of the campus, transforming the overall experience for both youth and staff. The design emphasizes a welcoming, harmonious environment using natural materials. The building’s massing and saw-tooth roofs reflect local architectural styles and landforms, while wood finishes are strategically placed to encourage social interaction. Clerestories and engineered roof trusses maximize natural light and ventilation in the large, open spaces, and resulted in a LEED Gold certification and net-zero energy status. The design emphasizes stormwater management as a key feature, connecting youth and staff to natural ecological systems. The Wellness & Recreation Center stands as a modern, functional, and aesthetically pleasing space, enhancing the campus environment and fostering wellness and connection for students, staff, and visitors alike. Congratulations to the DLR Group, and the children and families of the State of Washington!

  • ? Spotlight on a 2025 ACEC WA Engineering Excellence Awards State Gold winner! WSP in the U.S., your East Marginal Way Water Design project for the Seattle Department of Transportation won the top prize in the Future Value to the Engineering Profession Category! The East Marginal Way Corridor Design Improvements Project, led by SDOT and Seattle Public Utilities, was a multidisciplinary improvement project to upgrade Seattle’s water system resilience in the event of earthquakes. WSP served as the prime consultant and design engineer for the seismic resilient watermain portion of the project. The original pipeline sat atop 30 feet of artificial fill, which could sink over 32 inches in a Cascadia quake. Over a mile of aging water main had to be replaced with hazard-resistant ductile iron pipe—a first for the region. This means uninterrupted water and fire flow to critical Port terminals even during a major seismic event. The solution was flexible, seismic-resistant joints that extend over 16 inches, reinforced soil with biaxial geogrids, and custom fittings to absorb ground movement. Thanks to federal funding, Build America, Buy America (BABA) compliance, and some serious ingenuity, the project wrapped up four months early—setting a new standard for seismic upgrades in the region. Congratulations to this team! #BABA #MadeinAmerica #EngineeringExcellence

  • ? Spotlight on the National Gold winner in the Special Projects category of the 2025 ACEC WA Engineering Excellence Awards! Shannon & Wilson your Glennallen Response Base Hill Slope Stabilization project will go on to compete at the national American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) Engineering Excellence Awards in Washington, D.C. in May! The Glenallen Response Base (GRB) Hill Stabilization project mitigated landslide risks threatening both the Trans Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS) and the Glennallen Response Base. In collaboration with Alyeska Pipeline Service Company, Shannon & Wilson implemented a slope stabilization system using tieback anchors and eco-friendly woodchip insulation to protect TAPS infrastructure. Shannon & Wilson employed advanced geotechnical design methods, conducting tieback anchor load tests in glaciolacustrine clay, a material prone to creep. These tests revealed higher-than-expected bond strength, leading to the creation of a 3D geologic model using LeapFrog Geo. This model optimized anchor placement and reduced project complexity, cutting the required number of anchors by over 50% and improving design efficiency. The project’s use of data resulted in significant cost savings as well. By reducing the number of anchors, the construction timeline was shortened from two summers to one, saving over $3 million in costs. The GRB Hill Stabilization project successfully reduced landslide risks for Alyeska Pipeline, requiring less future maintenance and monitoring. The project also produced valuable data on glaciolacustrine clay bond strength, contributing to future geotechnical research and slope stabilization projects. It highlights how advanced engineering and sustainability can ensure infrastructure safety and cost efficiency. Congratulations to Shannon & Wilson!

  • ? Spotlight on the 2025 ACEC WA Engineering Excellence Awards National Gold winner in the Energy Category! Brown and Caldwell, your West Point Power Quality Improvements project for King County, WA will go on to compete at the national American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) Engineering Excellence Awards in Washington, D.C. in May! In 2021, King County Executive Dow Constantine signed an emergency declaration to address power disruptions caused by severe weather at King County’s largest wastewater treatment plant, the West Point Treatment Plant (WPTP) in Seattle. This plant processes 95 million gallons of wastewater daily and discharges treated water into Puget Sound but power disruptions can lead to wastewater discharges. To enhance the plant's resilience, King County’s Wastewater Treatment Division partnered with Brown and Caldwell, Hoffman Construction Company, and others to design and install a 16.8-megawatt battery system. This system, consisting of 48,000 battery cells, ensures continuous pump operation during power outages, preventing wastewater releases. This is the largest uninterruptible power supply system at a wastewater plant in the U.S., and was completed in just 3.5 years—half the typical timeline for similar large-scale projects. This battery system will safeguard water quality for years to come, ensuring that wastewater is effectively managed without contaminating the Puget Sound. Thank you, Brown and Caldwell!

  • ? Spotlight on the 2025 ACEC WA Engineering Excellence Awards National Gold winner in the Waste and Storm Water Category! HDR, your project of the Fry Creek Pump Station for the City of Aberdeen, WA will go on to compete at the national American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) Engineering Excellence Awards in Washington, D.C. in May! Grays Harbor has endured 14 federally declared floods in the past 50 years, causing over $1 billion in damage to homes, businesses, and infrastructure. With 25,000 residents impacted and storms becoming more intense, existing flood-control systems simply weren’t cutting it. Aberdeen and City of Hoquiam, WA needed a game-changing solution. Enter the $22 million Fry Creek Pump Station—a state-of-the-art flood-control powerhouse. Fry Creek, the largest drainage basin in Aberdeen, serves as the stormwater outfall for both cities. The new station has four, high-capacity vertical propeller pumps capable of moving 300 cubic feet of water per second, while tide gates and fish-friendly intake screens protect migratory coho salmon and resident cutthroat trout. Designed for future sea-level rise, it also features energy-efficient variable-frequency drives (VFDs) for smarter, more sustainable operation. As part of a $130 million regional flood-control effort, the Fry Creek Pump Station is one of the largest in western Washington. Working alongside the North Shore Levee, it will remove 5,000 properties from ’s flood zone within five years, providing long-term protection and peace of mind for the community. This is a huge win for Grays Harbor. Thank you, HDR!
