As an avid lifelong cyclist, Mr. Argente has specific expertise in active transportation design and planning, as well as green infrastructure and complete streets. As a Qualified Stormwater Practitioner and Qualified Stormwater Designer, Mr. Argente has current relevant experience with modern water and storm water management practices, including: bioswales, porous concrete, underground reservoirs, recharge systems and "smart" irrigation systems. Bolivar Park Stormwater and Runoff Capture Project, City of Lakewood, Lakewood, CA. Landscape Architect. Mr. Argente assisted in evaluating potential site locations within the park for the stormwater runoff and capture project. The goal of the project was to not only help the City comply with the metals Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs), as presented in the Los Cerritos Channel Watershed Management Program, but also to provide additional benefits, such as revitalized park infrastructure and augmentation of local water supplies. The project consists of an airinflated rubber dam diversion system to re -direct all urban runoff and stormwater runoff from the Del Amo channel through a pre-treatment system to remove trash, debris, and sediment. A pump station and drainage pipeline will convey the water into a large, buried multi -chambered storage/infiltration facility. The stormwater collected in the underground reservoir is treated and used to irrigate the park's landscaped areas. As part of the landscape architecture improvements, the project included new overhead structure and picnic area, new planting areas, and refurbishment of aging flatwork and active recreation Santa Monica Clean Beaches Initiative, City of Santa Monica, Santa Monica, CA. Landscape Architect. Mr. Argente was the Landscape Architect responsible for the design of the site and landscape amenities in support of the project. The project objective is to improve Santa Monica Beach water quality by increasing the diversion capacity at the Santa Monica Pier and Pico-Kenter storm drain outfalls. The 85th percentile storm event volume would be treated and diverted from the Pier watershed to the Santa Monica Urban Runoff Recycling Facility (SMURRF) or the sanitary sewer. The project proposes storm drain diversion and runoff storage systems at two separate storm drain outfalls, routed to two subsurface storage areas. 1.6 million TETRA TECH
