Krupp Construction at Sequoia Commons, Phase II

This is the second half of construction of condominiums and shops at the corner of Midvale and Tokay Blvds.

On the whole, we are satisfied with the environmental protections at this site.  Sediment control is much improved over Phase I, possibly because the city began a program of self-reporting on erosion control measures.   There is zero muddy runoff, except for a little at two spots on Caromar Dr.

The contractor is lucky to have a relatively flat site, which is easy to control.  But it's difficult to work inside, because the site is very cramped.

We are pleased with how the large rain garden along the east side of Phase I works.

However, there are some continuing small problems we would like to see resolved, shown in the photos below:

This muddy water is trickling from the entrance in the rear, along the silt sock.

Water in the gutter flows past this gravel pad, picking up sediment.

There have been continuing problems with dirty tracks on the pavement.  We would like to see sweeping extended as far as tracks are visible, to at least two blocks.

Krupp says: "Quality control is vital to the success of every building project."  We hope they include adhering strictly to their erosion control plan.  "You can trust Krupp General Contractors...."
