Delivering a sustainable, future‑ready elementary campus through integrated planning and engineering

AHBL provided civil engineering, land use planning, and land survey services for Yelm School District’s Southworth Elementary School. The project includes designing a new school building and site improvements. Civil engineering services included preparing the site plan, site grading, storm drainage, utility, and demolition plans. Grade elevations for buildings, pavement, sidewalks, and other site improvements are also provided. The design meets Thurston County Drainage Design and Erosion Control Manual (DDECM), 2016 edition. Additionally, a Temporary Erosion and Sedimentation Control (TESC) plan and Stormwater Pollution Prevention (SWPPP) plan are created for the site.
 

AHBL land use planners coordinated with the design team and subconsultants to identify all environmental information needed for the SEPA checklist and participate in the review process. Land survey services included a boundary and topographic survey of the site and adjacent roadways. The project meets Washington Sustainable Schools Protocol standards and uses the GC/CM delivery method.
