MACHADO BACKHOE, INC.

MACHADO BACKHOE, INC specializes in the fabrication and installation of galvanized corrugated steel pipe and hydraulic control structures, including canal gates and slide gates, primarily for water resource and wildlife habitat management projects. Their technical expertise lies in precision metal fabrication of corrosion-resistant steel components, structural integration of hydraulic control systems, and field installation of infrastructure designed for wetland and riverine environments. The company demonstrates a focused capability in delivering durable, field-deployed water conveyance and flow regulation systems that meet U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service specifications for environmental resilience and long-term maintenance in sensitive ecological zones. Their work requires deep familiarity with ASTM and AASHTO standards for coated steel products, field welding of heavy-gauge corrugated pipe, and site-specific gate alignment for controlled water release. The contractor has delivered projects for the Department of the Interior, specifically supporting the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in the maintenance and enhancement of wildlife refuge hydrology systems. Their engagement centers on infrastructure critical to wetland restoration, flood control, and aquatic habitat management, indicating a trusted relationship with federal land management agencies focused on ecological stewardship. Their primary industry focus is in the manufacturing of iron and steel pipe and tube from purchased steel, a niche that bridges industrial fabrication with public works applications. This vertical specialization positions them as a targeted supplier of engineered steel components for federal water infrastructure, rather than a general construction contractor. They operate within the intersection of civil engineering, environmental infrastructure, and metal fabrication markets. MACHADO BACKHOE, INC is a small business structured as a 2L entity, based in Stevinson, California. While they hold no formal government certifications, their geographic presence in Central California aligns them with regional water resource projects across the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and the Kern National Wildlife Refuge complex. Their market positioning reflects a localized, technically precise approach to delivering specialized steel infrastructure for federal conservation programs.
