GE/CH2M HILL will design the water-side portion of the La Quinta project, which includes the dock and the slip in the channel. The Agreement provides for preliminary engineering for the projected full build-out of the docking facilities (three berths) and the final design of the first dock (one berth) and slip. For 59 years, Goldston Engineering was a Corpus Christi based multi-disciplined engineering firm specializing in ports engineering providing planning, design, construction documents, cost estimating, environmental compliance and construction management services for marine terminals, municipal utilities, transportation, and coastal projects, regionally and abroad.

In March 2008, Goldston Engineering was acquired by CH2M HILL combining the talent and resources of both companies.
