Altamont Pass Landfill – Litter Containment Barriers

Ensuring Safe and Effective Litter Containment at Altamont Pass Landfill

In response to the growing need for effective waste management solutions at the Altamont Pass Landfill, Judge Netting was tasked with the installation of robust litter containment barriers. Spanning 2,000 feet of guardrail barrier netting and over 2,225 feet of small mesh and chain link mesh, this project was essential in maintaining cleanliness and preventing litter from escaping the facility’s boundaries. The use of specialized high-impact netting ensured that even in the harshest environmental conditions, the barriers would stand strong, efficiently containing debris and safeguarding the surrounding areas.

Tackling the Terrain and Weather: Challenges of Working in Livermore, CA

The unique geographical and environmental conditions of Livermore, CA, posed a significant challenge during this project. Altamont Pass is known for its tough, rocky terrain that required precise and difficult drilling. On top of that, the crew faced consistently hot, dry weather coupled with high winds that made managing equipment and materials all the more difficult. These elements demanded careful planning and technical expertise to ensure the barriers were installed securely and effectively, no matter the natural obstacles.
