Just a few weeks into their summer internship, our interns are already experiencing what "Real Experience. Real Impact." truly means.

From engineering design and surveying to GIS, stormwater management, construction observation, and CAD training, our interns are gaining hands-on experience and contributing to real projects that make a difference in the communities we serve.

Our Civil Design and Water Resources engineers recently had the opportunity to visit a force main replacement project to observe a large-diameter pipe installation using horizontal directional drilling (HDD) methods and connect classroom training to real-world construction.

The project includes approximately 6,800 linear feet of 20-inch and 16-inch force main installed in parallel, including an HDD crossing beneath a creek, which highlights one of the primary advantages of trenchless construction and minimizes impacts to the surrounding environment.

A special thank you to Lake County Public Works and Bolder Contractors for allowing our GHA team to observe a pipe pull exceeding 1,000 feet in length and gain valuable insight into the drilling process.

This World Environment Day, we’re excited to highlight a project that brings the community closer to nature: the Grayslake Village Center Nature Trail.

Guided by this year’s theme, Inspired by Nature. For Climate. For Our Future, the trail demonstrates the value of green spaces in supporting a sustainable environment. Just minutes from downtown Village of Grayslake, it provides easy access to a natural retreat, encouraging walking, running, or simply pausing to connect with the outdoors.

More than just a path, it’s a step toward cultivating green spaces that inspire care for our planet, one mindful moment at a time.

At GHA, construction observation is more than oversight, it is an essential part of project delivery.

Our latest article explores how field presence helps bridge the gap between design intent and successful construction through three established pillars:

1. Technical Inspection – Verifies that construction activities align with project plans, specifications, and design intent.
2. Documentation – Creates a reliable record of construction activities through reports, photographs, and material tracking, supporting accountability, decision-making, and future maintenance efforts.
3. Coordination – Serves as the communication link between contractors, engineers, owners, and other stakeholders, helping projects respond efficiently to changing field conditions.
