Municipal And Infrastructure Gas System Construction And Maintenance

BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit), Hayward, California

After performing a Gas Leak Inspection Survey of all the BART maintenance facilities in the Bay Area, MBS was tasked with replacing approximately 2,000 linear feet of underground gas piping. MBS utilized a number of methods to replace this piping to make the job as efficient and cost-effective as possible. MBS was able to use Gas Line Slitting for a portion of the project, a trenchless method that slits the existing pipe, pulling the new pipe through to replace at the same location. MBS also used open trenching, completing a large portion of work over two weekends (over 800 LF) due to the parking obstructions. A portion of the gas line was also re-routed due to underground obstructions, with MBS devising a plan to route piping up and over a building to tie-in to a hard to reach location. Completed Mid May 2019 – July 2019

PG&E (Pacific Gas And Electric), Richmond, California

MBS, a PG&E approved contractor, has gone through the rigorous PG&E testing to become OQ Certified for the installation of Natural Gas Distribution and Service Lines. We continue to perform installations for both residential, commercial and industrial properties for underground gas and electrical utilities, including OQ Certified Applicant Trenching, Excavation, Potholing, Gas Line Installation (Open Trench, Slitting, Boring) and Backfilling.​
