A ribbon cutting in Dos Palos marked the completion of a project built around an everyday essential: reliable drinking water.

LYLES joined the City of Dos Palos to celebrate its new Water Treatment Plant, designed to treat up to four million gallons of water per day from the California Aqueduct.

The project included two packaged treatment systems, a new operations building, chemical feed and disinfection systems, wash water recovery, solids handling facilities, and pump stations. Together, these systems provide the community with a replacement facility built to support reliable drinking water treatment for years to come.

Dos Palos Mayor Katy Reed delivered opening remarks, and LYLES Senior Project Manager Tyler Caglia shared a look at the work behind the completed facility and the teamwork that brought it to life.

The City’s appreciation for the team’s professionalism, quality, and collaboration gives this milestone added meaning. Thank you to our craft professionals, project team, City staff, engineering partners, subcontractors, and vendors for the work behind every system now ready to serve Dos Palos.

A Sunrise Worth the Early Alarm

Our Los Coyotes crew placed the slab on grade for the new Odor Control Station as daylight broke over the jobsite.

This concrete pour marks another step in upgrading the Los Coyotes Water Reclamation Plant’s odor-control system and gave us a pretty incredible view of the team at work.

LYLES joined Placer County Water Agency and regional partners to celebrate the groundbreaking of the Ophir Water Treatment Plant—a project decades in the making that we’re proud to help bring to life as the construction contractor.

Expected to begin operating in 2030, the plant will initially treat up to 10 million gallons of drinking water per day, supporting growing communities across western Placer County and strengthening reliability for existing customers.

For our team, this milestone marks the start of work with a lasting purpose: building infrastructure that families, businesses, and communities will depend on for generations.
Thank you to PCWA for trusting LYLES with this important work.

An Assistant Project Manager is more than a role behind the scenes. It’s a chance to learn the work, take on real responsibility, solve problems alongside experienced builders, and help keep complex projects moving forward.

At LYLES, that experience happens where it matters most, on projects that support the essential infrastructure communities depend on every day.

Build your knowledge. Build your career. Build work that matters.

Behind every successful project is a team turning plans into progress.

Some jobs are on the schedule. Others happen when the call comes.

On Friday October 2, an existing hot water line serving the plant’s digesters failed somewhere underground. The leak flooded an electrical vault and damaged wiring serving a significant portion of the facility.

It was not part of our work. But the plant needed help.

A four-person LYLES crew stepped in Friday morning and worked a 12-hour day to locate the source of the leak. Then they came back Saturday, putting their weekend plans aside, to make the repair and help keep the plant’s boilers and digesters operating while new electrical wiring was installed.

That kind of response says a lot about the people behind our work.

Experience matters. Technical skill matters. But so does the willingness to show up when something unexpected happens, take responsibility for the problem in front of you, and do what it takes to keep critical infrastructure running.

Four people. One unexpected problem. A weekend changed.

And a plant that could keep moving forward.

That is the grit our crews bring to the work every day.

At LYLES, Field Engineers are where planning meets ex*****on. They work alongside project teams in the field, solve real problems, coordinate the details that keep work moving, and learn what it takes to build complex infrastructure from the ground up.

It is hands-on experience. Real responsibility. And an opportunity to grow into the next generation of builders and leaders.

As we recognize Careers in Construction Month this October, we are highlighting the many paths that turn meaningful work into long-term careers. For Field Engineers, that path starts where the work happens, learning from experienced builders, taking ownership, and seeing firsthand how strong teams deliver projects communities depend on.

If you are looking for a career where you can learn the work, take on responsibility, and see the impact of what you build, explore opportunities with LYLES.
