Harper Houf Peterson Righellis Inc. received an Honor Award for the 2023 ACEC Oregon Engineering Excellence for the SE 129th Avenue Bike Lanes and Sidewalk Improvement Project in the City of Happy Valley, Oregon. MB&G is proud to have managed and led environmental site reviews and regulatory permitting compliance on this project. The project involved construction of approximately 1,450 linear feet of sidewalk on the east side of SE 129th Avenue and widening of the existing pavement through the curves between SE Mountain Gate Road and SE Scott Creek Lane. The east side of the roadway was widened to allow for bike lanes in both directions and to construct a sidewalk. MB&G’s Stuart Myers led wetland delineation and noxious weed surveys along the project corridor and oversaw the preparation of Endangered Species Act compliance documentation that demonstrated the project would not adversely affect water quality conditions downstream in the Clackamas River.
While conducting stand exams for the Upper Grouse Valley Project in California, MB&G foresters Ande Myers, Ian Cummins, and Rubie Teffeteller came across these impressive giant puffball mushrooms.
READ MOREMB&G is supporting PG&E with a hazard tree patrol to identify dead and dying trees along the Salt Springs/Tiger Creek Canal system in California. The canal system’s primary purpose is to supply water for hydropower generation. As the water continues downstream, it also becomes a source of drinking water for local utility districts. These historic canals have played an important role in Amador County for decades and present a unique environment for forestry work. Projects like this highlight the diverse and specialized work our California forestry team performs across the state.

MBG T2 Mobile was developed to change that. Watch the video below to see MBG T2 Mobile in action and learn how it’s helping forestry professionals collect better data, more efficiently.
