A Look at Our Recent Work

MPUD Silt Pond Removal Project:

(Barcellos Trucking & Mountain Dirt, Inc.)

Barcellos Trucking proudly partnered with Mountain Dirt, Inc., the Prime Contractor, on the 2025 MPUD Surface Water Treatment Facility – Silt Pond Removal Project for the Mariposa Public Utility District.

 

Project Scope:

This essential environmental and infrastructure project involved the removal and disposal of accumulated sediment and silt from the surface water treatment facility's pond. This type of work is crucial for maintaining the facility's water treatment capacity, operational efficiency, and overall water quality for the Mariposa community.

Our role in the project:

Barcellos Trucking's contribution was the critical task of trucking and hauling the removed material. We utilized a Super-10 dump truck to transport the heavy, de-watered silt and sediment from the:

  • Loading Site (Source): Mariposa County Surface Water Treatment Facility, 4888 Trabucco Street, Mariposa, CA 95338.

  • Unloading Site (Disposal): Mariposa County Landfill, 5593 CA 49, Mariposa, CA 95338, which is the approved Mariposa County Landfill, Composting, and Recycling Center.

Our team ensured the safe, timely, and efficient transport of the material, upholding the project's schedule and environmental compliance requirements. Truck clean-up was completed diligently after the hauling work to maintain a clean and professional operation.

Chukchansi Onsite Arena Dirt Removal:

(Barcellos Trucking & Tom Bohna Ranch)

Big shoutout to the logistics partners who made the Chukchansi rodeo happen! After the last bull bucked at the Rough Stock, Buck & Bash, Tom Bohna Ranch handled the heavy lifting to tear down the arena. They brought in Barcellos Trucking to help haul all that custom arena dirt—which measured up to 50 truckloads—from the parking lot to an onsite storage area. Teamwork makes the dream work when it comes to event breakdown!
