Logan Crockett Well Rebuild
Logan · Cache County · 2022
VanCon demolished an existing deteriorated well house, salvaged parts, built a new well house, and installed a 700 HP vertical turbine pump, flow meter, and chlorine gas injection. Construction involved high groundwater, digging into the side of an unstable hilltop, and a large volume of pedestrians. Due to design issues, VanCon became a design partner with the city, redesigning the retaining wall in a bunker-style vault to deal with the high groundwater and building dewatering wells and trenches.
