The $51 million Bellota Weir contract represents a significant win for Shimmick, strengthening its position in California's critical water infrastructure market. This project's scope is impressively comprehensive, combining multiple complex elements including an Obermeyer gate weir, fish screens, vertical slot fish ladder, and extensive pipeline work—showcasing Shimmick's technical capabilities across specialized water management solutions.
