Bell Mountain Ranch Metropolitan District, Colorado. Performed an engineering evaluation and preliminary design of modifications of a 0.4 MGD water treatment plant designed to remove radium, iron, and manganese. The radium removal required special considerations for the disposal of filter backwash wastes. Goose Bay Marina Concession Area Modernization, Canyon Ferry Lake, Montana. Project manager for the planning/design of water distribution and water treatment systems including a new well, buried storage tank, booster pump station and disinfection. Performed water distribution system modeling. Performed services during construction for the project. Charleston, West Virginia Water System. Evaluated the water storage tanks, pipeline distribution systems, and a 50 MGD surface water treatment facility. River Run Ranch Resort, Granby, Colorado. Project Manager for the design of potable water, nonpotable water, and wastewater systems serving a large RV resort. Design included water rights storage ponds, groundwater wells, surface water intake off of the Colorado River, water treatment plant, distribution and pumping, railroad and highway utility crossings, and other features. Industrial Park Fire System, Rifle, Colorado. Conducted a detailed evaluation and water quality sampling on a 3,500 gpm pumping station and 430,000 gallon storage tank to determine the adequacy of design and construction. The extent of corrosion to the water tank and pump system was investigated. Dallas, Texas, Icon at Ross Tunnel Impact Assessment. Provided evaluation and a report addressing the potential impacts that a tunnel boring project may have on a 4 story apartment complex. The $218,600,000 project was constructed in 2016. The assessment addressed the impact of a 32’-6” diameter stormwater relief tunnel beneath the building foundation piers. The assessment addressed the 1’-3” un-reinforeced concrete tunnel lining, easements, impacts of both the construction phase and the final design phase of the project and the hydraulics of the system. Rogers Reservoir, City of Durango, Colorado. Engineer for an existing outlet structure and rundown to a reservoir that was experiencing scour and erosion. Prepared plans for repair of the old structures and design of a new rundown with cutoff walls. Solitude Station Water System, Copper Mountain, Colorado. Prepared Design and Plan Submittal for Solitude Station at Copper Mountain. The work was water systems improvements including conversion of iodine disinfection to sodium hypochlorite disinfection and addition of chlorine contact time for 4-log inactivation of viruses. Water system relies on non tributary groundwater and serves a maximum of 1,500 diners per day at the mid-mountain ski lodge. Chambers Highpoint Utilities Planning, Douglas County Colorado. Provided planning and conceptual design engineering services to address the infrastructure needed to provide potable water, nonpotable water and sewer services to the Compark Village South 44 property.
