green-field cement import terminal in West Sacramento, CA.
 
Cement Import Terminal
Client  |  Cemex
Location  |  West Sacremento, California

This project was a new green-field cement import terminal in West Sacramento, CA, including dock, ship unloader, rail receiving, cement transport systems, storage silos, and truck and rail loading.

EDG’s services included:
  • Site Selection and Negotiations Associated with Eminent Domain
  • Concept Development and Preliminary Engineering
  • Permit Assistance (EIS, USACOE, Air Quality and Construction)
  • Project Budgeting, Scheduling, Procurement, Job Cost Accounting
  • Overall Project Management Including Site Management
The construction of this project was done as a replacement to an existing, smaller facility. The new facility construction featured hydraulic dredging, new dock construction with an access bridge, a rail mounted ship unloader rated at 1,000 MTPH, and an enclosed high speed screw conveying system to transport cement landside. A bucket elevator and air gravity conveying system distributed cement to any of six silos, with a total storage capacity of 60,000 MT. The same bucket elevator is used for rail receiving, which is rated at 500 STPH. Truck loadout is accomplished by two lanes below the silos, with a combined truck / rail loadout alongside the silos. Loadout rates for both systems are 600 STPH.

Help Prevent Worker Injuries Due to Electrical Equipment Failure | Become Arc-Flash Compliant

What is an arc flash, and why does EDG’s electrical division excel against the competition in providing arc-flash services?

An arc flash is a massive release of energy due to electrical current traveling through the air between electrical components at different potentials. If you are exposed to an arc flash, you may be exposed to temperatures up to 35,000 degrees Fahrenheit and explosive energy comparable to a blast of dynamite. Each day, 5-10 arc flash incidents occur in the United States and 2,000 workers annually are admitted to burn centers with severe arc-flash burns. Understanding the dangers, increasing worker awareness and reducing existing hazard levels are essential to the safety of those who work around electrical equipment.

EDG has the team of experts with experience in many industries and types of facilities and the knowledge to help you become Arc-Flash Compliant. We will work with you to tailor a program to meet the needs of your company or organization and comply with relevant safety standards, avoid citations and fines, and minimize the impact on your staff and operations.
