City of Los Angeles Laurel Canyon Boulevard Green Street Design -Build This project received awards from the ASCE Los Angeles Section, ASCE Metropolitan Los Angeles Branch, and CASQA. Principal -in -Charge for the design of bioswales along 1,000 linear feet of Laurel Canyon Boulevard for LA Sanitation — City of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Conservation Corps. The project provided increased groundwater recharge, reduced flooding impacts, protected compatible beneficial uses, and improved the neighborhood quality of life. This was accomplished by the design of a series of infiltration swales along Laurel Canyon Boulevard between Kagel Canyon Street and Terra Bella Street with curb, gutter, and sidewalk improvements. This project collected stormwater runoff from a 125-acre drainage area. Duties included developing design and traffic control plans and performing construction management. City of Los Angeles Garvanza Park Rainwater Capture and Use This project received the prestigious CASQA Outstanding Stormwater BMP Implementation Project Award. Principal Engineer responsible for assisting LA Sanitation — City of Los Angeles and North East Trees to determine the feasibility of retrofitting Garvanza Park with regional stormwater management BMPs to enhance urban and stormwater runoff water quality from an 85-acre watershed for TMDL compliance. Designed a drainage system to route runoff from an existing 48-inch RCP storm drain into a pretreatment BMP system consisting of a hydrodynamic separator and settling basin, one water tight subsurface detention gallery, and one subsurface -infiltration gallery for onsite landscape irrigation use and infiltration. Designed the pump station with SCADA and inline monitoring systems. Delineated and characterized the tributary watershed to conduct a hydrologic and hydraulic analysis, and performed a pollutant load removal analysis for the proposed structural treatment controls. Performed tasks involving utility research, topographic ground surveying, potholing, a geotechnical analysis, including onsite infiltration testing, and shoring analysis. Delivered PS&E construction documents and assisted with the bid process. Performed construction administration duties, including construction inspection and material testing. Performed post -construction water quality monitoring to assess BMP function and effectiveness, which proved the project is showing tangible results in terms of TMDL compliance. Worked with stakeholders to identify concerns prior to and during construction. City of Beverly Hills Burton Way Median Green Street Principal -in -Charge for a feasibility study and the design of bioswales and green street improvements to capture and retain urban runoff on the Burton Way median in the City of Beverly Hills. These improvements will assist the City in complying with the Ballona Creek Watershed EWMP and the Bailona Creek Metals TMDL. The project includes aesthetic improvements with efficient landscape design, including drought -tolerant plants that reduce outdoor irrigation use and help the City meet water conservation objectives. The multi -benefit design incorporates walking trails, including public art displays and an aesthetically pleasing landscape. The project will enhance water quality, reduce flooding impacts, and provide a beautiful, tranquil community space that increases public awareness of stormwater quality and water conservation issues.
