The Safeway Distribution Center: Specific project team experience includes assisting Safeway Inc. with site selection and design for its regional distribution center in Auburn, Washington. Scott Sherrow PE served as project principal and project manager in the site selection and site feasibility to locate and evaluate locations for the new regional Safeway Distribution Facility in Washington State.
After a site was selected the team performed a site feasibility analysis and had a lead role in the project entitlements for the redevelopment of this former Boeing facility. The project team provided the City of Auburn the necessary site and environmental and site information that allowed the City of make an informed decision on the project. This enabled the client to avoid the lengthy process of preparing an Environmental Impact Study. This saved Safeway significant time and money.
The Facility, 116 acres in size, included a 538,000 square feet dry goods warehouse and a 515,000 square foot refrigerated warehouse, a recycling center, trucking department, dispatch office, fuel station, truck repair shop and an administration center, 50 acres of concrete pavement, and a 300,000 cubic foot storm water detention/water quality pond.
