The Final Cover and Drainage Remediation project at the Menifee landfill served to protect the health and safety of the public and environment by recovering exposed waste on the landfill, reconsolidating offsite waste onto the property limits, constructing a drainage system to prevent cover degradation, and installing an updated Menifee Valley Flyer’s (model airplane club) runway and shade cover. The project, which was completed in June 2019, won the 2020 American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Environmental Engineering Project of the Year award for the Riverside/San Bernardino region. From there, the project also won the Los Angeles section ASCE Environmental Engineering Project of the Year award, which includes Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, Inyo and Kern Counties.
