## History
### Estadio Municipal de Calama

Estadio Municipal de Calama was a multi-use stadium in Calama, used mostly for football matches and it was the home stadium of Cobreloa until 2012. The stadium held 13,000 people (seating capacity),
In the municipal minutes dating back to 1932, where the mayor reports on agreements made based on public proposals, the presentation and possibility of establishing organizations, including stadiums, is reported. This was due to the immediate concern for modern venues. In the municipal minutes of 1933, during discussions about the purpose of the budget to be used for the municipal slaughterhouse, the Director of Works suggested dividing the budget between this project and the construction of the municipal stadium.
On Wednesday, December 23, 1942, an extraordinary session was held under the President of the Chamber of Deputies of Chile, Pedro Castelblanco, in which one of the points to be discussed was the authorization to the municipality of Calama to contract a loan to builds municipal strucutures, which was 12 million chilean pesos in total, of which 200 thousand pesos of that epic were given for the completion of the municipal stadium. At that time, the mayor of Calama, Mr. Ernesto Meza Jeria, met with the Minister of Finance, Guillermo del Pedregal, to authorize the city municipality to obtain the special loan, which would be used in the network of buildings project in this area. Mr. Pedregal's idea was to improve the visibility of the sector and reduce the rate of alcoholism in it.
The stadium's ownership has been registered in the name of the Municipality of Calama, under the ownership of the El Loa Real Estate Registrar, since 1945.
In 1948, activities were recorded in the stadium, such as the national football championship held there, in which representatives of associations from Antofagasta, Pedro de Valdivia, Chuquicamata, Maria Elena and Calama performed. It was built in 1952.
On October 11, 1959, the Chilean Amateur Football Championship was launched, where the matches to determine the champion of this tournament were chosen as the venue. In order for the city to be able to organize this event, the municipality invested 60 million CLP in the venue, where the stands were expanded, dressing rooms were fitted, the venue was equipped with electric lighting and repairs were made to the field itself. On November 9 of that year, the final was played in the stadium, the amateur team from Calama faced the team of Tomás Bata from Peñaflor, winning by 3 goals to 2.
By 1971, the stadium had a capacity for 10,000 people, had lighting, grass, Olympic-sized fencing, 6 large locker rooms, an athletic track, toilets and ticket offices. The home team was Sport Cóndor, recognised by ANFA, which would later be called Deportes El Loa.
A match was maded to conmemore the first aniversary of the nazionalization of the cooper to the Chilean State, Beetween Deportes El Loa and Colo-Colo, the victory was for team from Santiago de Chile, by 5-2.
According to the former player of the Cobreloa team, Carlos Rojas, in 1977 when the Loíno team entered professional football, modifications were made to the stadium so that it could host matches of this nature.
After the Cobreloa club won its first national title in 1980, in order to compete in the 1981 Copa Libertadores, improvements were made to the stadium, primarily to the lighting towers. These improvements were carried out by the Coordinación Regional de Deportes y Recreación, as well as to the field, which was managed by CODELCO, Chuquicamata division.
The last match before the stadium was rebuilt was on February 3, 2013, valid for the national football championship of that year. The teams Cobreloa and Deportes Iquique played in front of 4,662 spectators. The match ended with a 4-1 victory for the home team.
According to the financial report submitted by the Cobreloa club in 2013, the stadium's infrastructure that year included: Pacifico sector bleachers with a capacity of 5,208, Ándes sector bleachers with a capacity of 2,850 and for north and south sector bleachers with a capacity of 3,952 people. A locker room for referees, a locker room for coaching staff, two locker rooms for local and visiting professional teams, two locker rooms for local and visiting cadet players, an equipped gym, a conference room, an administration office, two cafeterias with customer service and eight ticket offices for home games.

### Proposal

A new stadium in Calama was first suggested in 2007, when architect, Andrés Valle, made a model of the project; it was well received by the authorities. This showed that the community and the private sector had interest in a new venue. In 2008, Cobreloa representative Gerardo Mella proposed the project to authorities of Calama. With the consultation of the company Alberto Saltori y Asociados, Cobreloa would dedicate CLP 35 to 40 million to this project.
In 2009, on Chile, the President Michelle Bachelet announced the inclusion of Calama in the third phase of the 'Estadios Bicentenario' projects. Representative Marcos Espinoza had referred to the project financing with an amount of CLP 300 million, either for a renovation or a new structure.
In 2010, parliamentarian Marcos Espinoza announced to the media the possibility that this project would be not included in the 2011 budget.
On March 15, 2010, the design of the Municipal Stadium project began. The project was awarded a total of 70,000,000 CLP, was scheduled to last 80 calendar days, and was scheduled to be completed in October of that year, financed by the mining company El Abra. The first stage of the design consisted of a location study, preliminary delivery of the preliminary project and architectural design, a soil mechanics study, and a road study. The second stage consisted of the engineering design. The architects of this project were Ricardo Judson Bilbao, Roberto Olivos Marchant, Javier Ávila Burrows, and Isabél Perelló Rosés, represented by the group Judson y Olivos Arquiectos. The projected surface area for the project was approximately 17,500 square meters and the projected materials were prefabricated concrete structures, steel, stone veneers and copper cladding. The project included 4 entrances to the stadium, and the roof of the structure would be made with Stripweave cladding by Hunter Douglas.
On July 15, 2011, the Regional Investment Draft was made public, outlining the investments made in the Calama Stadium project prior to 2012. The statement detailed public spending by funding source; the Fondo Nacional de Desarrollo Regional invested CLP 800,000,000, and the Municipality of Calama invested CLP 1,500,000.
In August 2011, the municipality of Calama presented the 2010 plan which included a preliminary project, for the remodelling of the Municipal Stadium. This stadium would increase the capacity of spectators to 15,000, and would also have synthetic grass, closed circuit television, snack areas, parking and lighting. In its first stage of construction, it contemplated the construction of 8,500 seats.
In 2011, Chilean President Sebastián Piñera announced that $170 million U.S. dollars was to be invested in improving the infrastructure of Chile's stadiums through the 'Chilestadios' project, in which the Estadio Municipal de Calama was included.
On May 14, 2012, a vote was held on the agreement that led the Illustrious Municipality of Calama to determine the cost of financing and maintaining the project, amounting to CLP 311,772,636, provided that the project is approved and financed by the Regional Government.
The ultimate project was shown to Calama mayor, Estebán Velásquez Nuñez, in 2012. In this phase of the project the Consejo Regional was decided as the amounts would be distributed. The Instituto Nacional del Deporte (IND) allocated CLP 5,000 million to the project. The technical team of the municipality of Calama led by Gloria Aliaga was in charge of different project phases. In July 2012, the then president of the republic, accompanied by the general secretary of government, Andrés Chadwick and the undersecretary of sports, Gabriel Ruiz Tagle, officially presented the project to the community in general.
   "Era impensado no tener un estadio en Calama y hoy día el trabajo que hemos desarrollado en la Municipalidad ha dado sus frutos"
   "It was unthinkable not to have a stadium in Calama and today the work we have developed in the Municipality has paid off"
The municipality of Calama had to deposit the project to the Banco Integrado de 'Proyectos del Ministerio de Planificación Social'. The resource allocation of the 'Fondo Regional of Desarrollo Social' was subtracted by the 'Consejo Regional' of Antofagasta Region to enter the tendering.
The proposal was for a concrete structure with 12,000 individual seats, including a place for disabled people. The project had 4 floors, with dressing room for the players and referees, hygienic services, snack hall, media area, first aid hall and LED screen. The field dimensions were 105 x 68 meters with natural grass. The design was inspired by the aging copper bars in order to provide identification to the community in the area.
In September 2012, the National Sports Institute, led by Undersecretary of Sports Gabriel Ruiz Tagle, launched the bidding process for the stadium reconstruction project. The bidding terms were made available on the Public Market website, and a deadline of 330 calendar days was set for completion.
In 2012 non-compliance to bidding rules delayed construction, which is why the 'Instituto Nacional del Deporte' had to seek alternatives to avoid altering the route of the process. The first tender was declared void because the contracting companies that participated in it did not comply with all the requirements imposed in it. The participating companies were Corsam Corviam and Ingeniería y Construcciones SERINCO Limitada.

### Construction

Due to the special nature of the contract to be signed, the Instituto Nacional del Deporte entered into a direct contract with the Spanish company Isolux Corsan on December 17, 2012, who had paritiped in the void tender, the contract was approved on December 19 of that year. On January 30, 2013, the contract requires the company to complete the work within a period of 330 calendar days and the land was handed over for subsequent construction. The initial budget for the execution of the work according to the contract was CLP 8,659,965,129. The dismantling works started the same day with the removal of stadium light bulbs.
By February of that year, the grass that was used for the stadium matches prior to its reconstruction was used to decorate public spaces in the city, mainly its squares. This work was carried out by the Cleaning Department of the Municipality of Calama.
According to the project's work logs, there were delays in the delivery of land adjacent to the Ándes section of the stadium in March of this year, where the municipal water park is located. The drinking water tanks, sewage system, perimeter fences, and lighting tower were located in this area.
In April of this year, the 'Instituto Nacional del Deporte' and the 'Gobierno Regional' increased project financing to CLP 12,000 million approximately.
In April 2013, demolition and debris removal work was carried out, while earthmoving was carried out in parallel, representing 6% of the total work. On June 28, a variation in the execution of the work was approved, with the incorporation of missing items within it, considered this as an extension of the project. Under the raising of the first pillar placed in the work and with the presence of the undersecretary of sports at that time with other authorities of the Calama and Antofagasta, the ceremony to start the rebuild of the stadium took place on July 2, 2013. At that time the undersecretary referred to the deadline for the completion of the work being the end of that same year. The next day, the building permit was processed by the municipality, the construction was classified as a major equipment construction, the property where the construction began covers about 43,459 square meters in total, corresponding to the stadium, pool and municipal jogging track. The project presented regulatory non-compliances regarding the limits presented due to its location in the communal regulatory plan with respect to its nature, where it is highlighted that its height exceeded the limit established as its constructability limit, according to national construction standards, for which it urged to seek responsibilities for these committments.
In May, a public tender was held for the contract to install the seats in the stands and the substitute benches at the stadium. Fernando Mayer S.A. was awarded the contract. In June, the tender for the procurement and installation of the LED screen for the project was held. The contract was awarded to the company SOC COM WU Y PAZZANESE LTDA.
On August 16, the contract modification with the company, which had been executed on June 28 of that year, was approved for the purposes of this resolution. Items were modified to ensure the complete execution of the original project. This was due to the fact that at the beginning of the contract in 2012, the renovations could not be fully awarded to the contractor due to insufficient funding. These extraordinary items included railings, paint, PEX, refined slabs, wall waterproofing, exposed concrete ceilings, architectural exterior lighting on the façade, air conditioning equipment, and enclosures.
By November 2013, progress reached only 40%. The revised completion date was the end of the first quarter of 2014.
On December 20, the first extension of the project deadline was made, thus also increasing the items and the variation in the project execution until January 20, 2024. The contract price was increased by CLP 287,704,474, the reason being due to technical arguments referring to improving the quality of the work, which implied physical and technical modifications, thus requiring the need to carry out new works, considered extraordinary. These new items were mainly directed towards the electrical project of the work.

### 2014

In April progress reached 85% and regional governor Valentín Volta said the stadium would finish in the second half of the year.
In May salaries to company employees went unpaid over delays. On June 16, the resolution authorizing payment for the extraordinary works determined in December 2013 was issued. This resolution confirms the extension of the deadline, leaving it at 356 calendar days. In July payments to workers of Isolux – Corsan were delayed. On August 1, the work was again regularized by resolution, leaving a total of 516 calendar days. The deadlines since the previous resolution in June are recorded. For September, it was announced that the new stadium it will be opened in November this year, due to delays in municipal delivery of this. Due to delays and a failure to cover outstanding debts to its subcontractors, Isolux-Corsan ran into difficulties. The new completion date was early 2015.
Then-Chile National Football coach, Jorge Sampaoli, had planned to use the stadium for matches with Brazil and Argentina in the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification.
On October 6, a resolution regularized payment for the project, with a total deadline of 516 calendar days. It indicated that payment for extraordinary works was required and that administrative measures had been taken against the official responsible for the National Sports Institute due to debts attributed to late payments to the company contracted to carry out the extraordinary works established in the previous contract extensions.
In November 2013, the tender for the stadium's public address system was held. The company is responsible for the provision, implementation, and installation of an integrated monitoring and supervision system using security software. YAMAIMPORT S.A. was awarded the contract.
By December 31, the resolution again regularized the construction deadline, extending it by 128 days, for a total of 644 calendar days, with a proposed completion date of November 4 of the same year. No extension was requested this time. The observations highlight the responsibilities of officials from the National Sports Institute. In a memorandum, the National Sports Institute sought to fine the company Corsan for 104 days, covering the period from July 1 to December 10 of that year. This was rejected because, according to the contract stipulations, the supervisory body is responsible for allocating the increased deadlines corresponding to that period.
By the time Corsam began its work, the amount due to deadline extensions and project budgetary injections had reached CLP 11,154,761.58 over a period of 729 calendar days.

### 2015

In January 2015, during a visit to the site, Mayor Valentín Volta set the deadline for the initial delivery of the project as February 9th of that year. However, due to the need for testing and administrative procedures, February was set as the date for opening to the community.
In February 2015 delays came over the bathrooms, which were not complete. The opening date of the stadium was April 18.
