Smith, PE, CFM Project Manager Jonis Smith is a professional engineer with 23 years' experience in all aspects of project management, stormwater management, flood control engineering, water quality permitting, low impact (LID) stormwater management design, construction management, and water resource system design. He has successfully engineered and managed the conceptual design, preliminary design, final design, and construction processes for numerous public, pseudo -public, and private projects. He is adept in all aspects of obtaining resource agency permits and construction permits. He has successfully processed numerous Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) (Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR), Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), Physical Map Revision (PMR), and Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA)) applications, Project Experience EDUCATION California State University, Long Beach MS, Civil Engineering (Construction Management), 2000 California State University, Long Beach BS, Civil Engineering, 1995 ACCREDITATIONS AND LICENSES State of California Registered Professional Engineer RCE 58654 State of Arizona Registered Professional Engineer RCE 46552 Cedified Floodplain Manager No. US•14-07485 PROFESSIONAL AFFILIATIONS Floodplain Managers Association Centennial Park Lake Circulation and Aeration Study, Santa Ana, California. Project manager for the evaluation and remediation study for the Centennial Park Lake, Field work and existing project evaluation included soft sediment samples to analyze the lake bed retardation properties and water samples, taken of the course of three months, to monitor the quality of the water. A Lake Operations and Maintenance Manual was written for the city on urban lake habitat preservation. The proposed design alternatives included recirculation pumps, aeration pods, manmade reefs, bio -remediation areas, and educational signage to educate the public of their essential role in sustaining the habitat. Percolation Pond Site Expansion Project, City of Santa Maria, California. Served as the Project Manager for the Percolation Pond Site Expansion Project (Project) which involves expanding the percolation ponds to dispose of the WWTP's ultimate treated effluent capacity of 13.5 MGD. Dudek's engineers explored and ultimately designed pumping, pipeline and expanded percolation facilities on 241 acres of land owned by the City, that were previously being contract farmed. Phase I of the Project designed facilities to accommodate 25% of the WWTP effluent capacity. Dudek's engineers also investigated the use of a Bio -Filter to fix and remove dissolved nitrogen from the effluent prior to percolation. Valley Center Municipal Water District, Woods Valley Ranch WRF Phase 2 and Charlan Road Seasonal Storage, Valley Center, California. Mr. Smith is serving as Civil/Site Design Task leader for the Charlan Road Seasonal Storage Facility Project(s). The Projects support the phased development of the South Village Wastewater Service Area within the District and are funded by Clean Water State Revolving Fund (SRF) loans, The WRF upgrades include design of an extended aeration, activated sludge process design for biological nitrogen removal and tertiary disk filters followed by chlorine disinfection. The facility is a 100% reuse project requiring 134-day5 of wet weather storage, Dudek is designing a 43 acre-foot (14 million gallons) earthen basin to provide supplemental wet weather storage. The pond geometry and layout was designed to stay out of jurisdictional permitting of the Division of Safety of Dams. To mitigate the potential consolidation of loose alluvial soils below the basin berms during a design seismic event, DUDEK Page 25E-46
