This year is looking to be another busy MATERIAL AVAILABILITY year for Enebak Construction. Moving millions of cubic yards of earth The site consists of varying depths of each year takes extraordinary vision, black dirt. Some areas throughout the massive equipment, and a talented, site vary in depth from as little as 1 foot dedicated team. We have a fair share of black dirt to as deep as 20 feet. Due of carryover work from 2019, as well as to these varying depths and large a handful of new jobs starting in 2020 amounts of black dirt, ECC has to mine that we are looking forward to working out a 7-acre pond nearly 50 feet deep on. to obtain the amount of sand that is required to develop the site in. The new HyVee store in Blaine, MN is a project we are continuing to work on throughout the course of the winter. This is the fourth HyVee site that ECC has been part of in the past few years. We have worked with multiple developers and looked at different layouts for this site for over a decade.

DEWATERING
Most jobs throughout the Blaine area require some amount of dewatering. The HyVee site requires a pretty extensive dewatering process, utilizing hydraulic pumps. There are currently two 8” hydraulic pumps that run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to keep the water at bay. These pumps run to multiple sediment basins that we have built onsite to clean the water. Once the water gets to the basins it runs through a sequence of 2-3 sediment basins to filter out any of the sediment in the water. At that point the water is clean enough, and it overflows through an outlet pipe and into an offsite drainage ditch.
