RE: RFP for Project Advisor Services for University Lakes Project
Dear Ms. Greco: As an LSU graduate and long-time resident of Baton Rouge, I have personally enjoyed visiting the University Lakes over the years. On any given sunny day it is easy to see the Lakes’ many benefits to LSU and the Baton Rouge community. More recently, you can also see how the health of the Lakes is declining, and some of the challenges that have emerged as the popularity of the Lakes and their surrounding neighborhoods have increased. Naturally, I, along with everyone on our Baton Rouge-based team, was ecstatic to learn that the LSU Foundation, LSU, the State of Louisiana, CPRA, BREC and East Baton Rouge City/Parish are stepping up to bring the Baton Rouge Lakes Master Plan to life. We followed closely the master planning process spearheaded by the Baton Rouge Area Foundation and have worked with BRAF to further explore how the University Lakes can help enhance flood risk reduction benefits. Simultaneously, through our joint venture with Brailsford & Dunlavey (B&D), we have supported successful implementation of the Nicholson Gateway Development, one of LSU’s Baton Rouge campus’ most ambitious and transformative projects. For this next vital and transformative project for our region, the B&D | CSRS joint venture has assembled a team of experienced professionals who are passionate about restoring and renewing the Lakes as a major community amenity. We want to help unlock the additional benefits that the Lakes system can provide. Led by Mark Goodson, a CSRS principal and experienced planning and resilience professional, our team includes B&D, CSRS, the construction engineering firm Moffatt & Nichol and the Baton Rouge-based engineering consulting firm GOTECH. Our team provides seasoned professionals who can manage the University Lakes Project from kickoff through successful completion. Our subject matter experts stand ready to apply their expertise in any number of ways to help the LSU Real Estate and Facilities Foundation (REFF), project partners, and surrounding communities find solutions to the challenges a project such as the Lakes will present. Collectively, our team understands the critical need to restore the University Lakes system to health, and we have the experience, capacity and expertise to help REFF deliver the desired outcomes of the Project, including: • Health – A healthy lakes system serves as an important habitat in which native plants and wildlife can thrive. It provides safe and accessible recreation opportunities and connections that encourage a healthy lifestyle. A healthy lakes system helps to manage and clean stormwater, which reduces risk for the community. A healthy lakes system builds on its legacy of providing a touchpoint for people to explore in new ways Louisiana, Baton Rouge, or maybe just their own backyards. THE BRAILSFORD & DUNLAVEY | CSRS TEAM

• Beauty – In many ways, the scenic beauty of the Lakes has become a symbol for LSU and Baton Rouge. That scenic beauty can be accessible to all, and it offers value in and of itself. Its scenic beauty enhances the image of our community and the State’s flagship university every time someone enjoys the view. • Win-Win – At project completion, the Lakes will feel like a “win” for both funders and users. The funders will get maximum value for their investment, feeling confident their desired results were achieved and that their funds were spent appropriately and efficiently. Users should feel like the temporary disruptions associated with construction were well worth it, that they were kept informed and engaged, and that the result is an even better University Lakes system for them to enjoy for generations to come. Our proposal submittal demonstrates our team’s unique qualifications and capacity to support REFF in managing the University Lakes Project. The B&D | CSRS Team has a strong track record of managing large, complex projects with multiple stakeholders to successful completion. For additional information about our proposal, please contact me at (225) 769-0546 or via email: [email protected]. We want to partner with REFF in this important endeavor and request your serious consideration of our proposal.

M&N provided the City of Redwood with investigation, conceptual planning, engineering design, permit support, construction support, and project closure reporting for the dredging of the Redwood Shores Lagoon. The Redwood Shores Lagoon System is located along the west shore of the San Francisco Bay and serves as a storm drain basin for Redwood Shores, a 1,500-acre developed community, while providing recreational access for resident boaters. The salt water lagoon is tidally influenced though outfalls which allow tidal flushing. For more than 50 years, sediments have accumulated throughout various portions of the lagoon, particularly in the narrow inlet channels. Storm drains also contribute a small proportion of sediment from the local runoff into the lagoon. Pockets of sediment contamination (PAHs exceeding state criteria) are present within the lagoon. Majority of the material was used for wetland restoration nearby the site.

the LDSP project dredged ~11 million cubic yards of sediment from the Mississippi River and hydraulically pump them over 13 miles through a pipeline to create an access corridor and over 1,100-acres of marsh habitat at strategic locations across the Barataria Land Bridge. The establishment of the pipeline corridor is intended to facilitate the implementation of future restoration projects near the project area. Since inception nearly 2,000-acres have been restored as a result of the creation of this corridor. Over 70 cost estimates were performed to compare and evaluate the various alternatives with respect to available borrow sites, pipeline alignments, placement area and access corridors, environmental conformity, and dredge/ booster pump system production capabilities. This $101M project was recently bid and the engineer’s estimate was within 5% of the low bid contractor.

The Cost Appendix provides opinions of probable costs for four different channel improvement alternatives along with the selected plan for both initial construction and the 50-year-long term maintenance dredging period. Costs for the selected plan were developed according to USACE required format and included 12 separate placement sites for dredging and placement of 41.8 million cubic yards of material. Costs for the initial construction incorporated in-bay, upland, beach nourishment, wetland marsh habitat, bird island habitat, and offshore placement alternatives. The 50-year maintenance dredging costs evaluated dredging and placement costs for 239.6 million cubic yards during the project life. Placement options for maintenance material also incorporated similar in-bay, upland, and offshore placement alternatives while also constructing future placement areas as mitigation habitat sites. Cost analysis results are currently under reviewed by the USACE for inclusion in the Chiefs Report for assumption of maintenance dredging.
