BURBANK-BASED WILLIAM YANG AND ASSOCIATES MERGES WITH HENRIKSON OWEN AND ASSOCIATES TO FORM A PREMIER M.E.P. ENGINEERING FIRM IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

Irvine, 30 July 2007. William Yang and Associates' merger with Henrikson Owen and Associates allows both firms to offer a greater depth of resources to their clients, and gives Henrikson Owen and Associates an improved ability to serve Los Angeles-area clients.

Both firms provide mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering services for K-12 school, higher education, architectural, and government clients. Founded in 1997, Henrikson Owen and Associates is one of the Owen Group of companies, a multidisciplinary engineering firm. Henrikson Owen has several offices in southern California, but, though having numerous clients in Los Angeles County, did not have an office in the central LA area. William Yang and Associates, a firm known regionally for the excellence of their work, has several decades of Los Angeles presence.

"We realized that in order to continue providing excellent service, we needed more staff and resources. William Yang and Associates, a firm with a long history of providing exceptional project solutions, is a perfect match to Henrikson Owen's client service philosophy," says Richard Henrikson, Principal of Henrikson Owen and Associates.

William Yang is also excited about the change. "This is a great development-the clients of both firms will now see even better service through our expanded depth of resources. Henrikson Owen was a good fit, with the culture and management philosophy of the two firms dovetailing neatly."

William Yang and Associates will now be known as William Yang Engineering. Richard Henrikson and William Yang are now focusing on demonstrating to their clients the benefits that will be derived from the merger, resulting in greater responsiveness, deeper resources, and larger geographic coverage than either firm could previously offer separately.

Featured Projects:

Campus Infrastructure Improvements Project
California State University, Channel Islands

Henrikson Owen and Associates was retained by the California State University, Channel Islands (CSUCI) to design the Campus Infrastructure Improvements Project. CSUCI is the 23 rd CSU campus, and is established at the site of the former Camarillo State Hospital and Development Center. The existing campus building inventory, turned over from hospital usage, is comprised of approximately 1.6 million gsf of buildings, built from the 1930s to the 1950s. CSUCI is renovating or demolishing these buildings, and building new buildings, for classrooms, offices, library, and other University facilities. Student enrollment is expected to reach 15,000 FTEs by the year 2025. As a result, an extensive campus infrastructure is required to support this ambitious building program.

Henrikson Owen and Associates is developing a new central heating and cooling plant that utilizes waste heat-generated steam from an adjacent cogeneration plant. This steam is used for generating heating hot water (HHW) and chilled water (CHW) in an absorption chiller. HHW and CHW are then distributed around campus in underground piping loops to provide space heating and cooling for campus buildings. Henrikson Owen is also designing HVAC renovations for campus buildings so that they can compatibly accept campus HHW and CHW. All of this HVAC infrastructure is controlled by a central campus energy management system (EMS), which will be upgraded and expanded as part of this project.

The project also includes substantial improvements to the aging electrical infrastructure, including upgrades to a 12 kV electrical power distribution system to replace the over 40-year-old, obsolete, 4.16 kV, electrical power system. New cables and new transformers will provide reliable service and prepare the campus for future expansion.

Substantial upgrades and expansion of the telecommunications and fire alarm systems will be implemented under this project. This includes master planning of the telecommunications system for future growth, upgrades to modern standards ( CSU TIP Guidelines), and renovations due to poor installation conditions in some locations.

Upgrades and expansion to the stormwater system are being implemented under this project, including a possible retention basin. The sanitary sewer system and water distribution system are to be designed for selected improvements. Reclaimed water for use in campus irrigation systems is being extended onto campus. Natural gas distribution is being extended to areas where no service is available currently, but a cademic expansion is planned.

The construction budget for the Campus Infrastructure Improvements Project is $40,000,000. The infrastructure improvements are scheduled to come on line in 2010.
