<br />Los Angeles County Public Works Burton W. Chace Park Design,
<br />June 2020 - Ongoing
<br />CWE provided civil engineering design services for the park in Marina del
<br />Rey, California, including utilities, grading, drainage, irrigation, and structural
<br />support, on behalf of Los Angeles County Beaches and Harbors. The site is
<br />approximately 7.5 acres and included design of the entrance plaza,
<br />conversation node, picnic shelters, great lawn, picnic node, world stage space, amphitheater,
<br />two play hills, restrooms, new boaters restroom, two covered patios, statue, picnic shelter, and
<br />benches. CWE prepared structural calculations for prefabricated restroom building
<br />foundation, site lighting poles, and fencing, and designed up to 5 feet of utility connections to
<br />buildings, park systems, and facilities. We also conducted a storm drain analysis to identify
<br />the change in impervious area at the site to identify the additional runoff that may be created, as
<br />it was unclear if the existing site drainage facilities had the capacity for additional drainage.

<br />City of Los Angeles Laurel Canyon Boulevard Roadway Design,
<br />June 2014 - September 2018
<br />This project received awards from the American Society of Civil Engineers
<br />(ASCE) Los Angeles Section, ASCE Metropolitan Los Angeles Branch (MLAB),
<br />and California Stormwater Quality Association (CASQA). CWE designed and
<br />performed construction management for roadway widening and sidewalk
<br />improvements along 1,000 linear feet of Laurel Canyon Boulevard for LA Sanitation - City of
<br />Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Conservation Corps in the City's Pacoima neighborhood,
<br />between Kagel Canyon Street and Terra Bella Street. The project improved the neighborhood
<br />quality of life by increasing pedestrian mobility and safety for residents and school children.
<br />The project was designed to benefit traffic flow and improve congestion, especially during
<br />school hours and rush-hour traffic. The roadway widening project reduced flooding on the
<br />streets and mitigated ponding at residential driveways and intersections after a storm event by
<br />adding new gutters and bioswales. The intersections were designed to include ADA-compliant
<br />curb ramps and sidewalks. CWE also designed roadway improvements to incorporate an
<br />extra lane on Laurel Canyon Boulevard, and provided asphalt concrete overlay. CWE
<br />provided pre-, during, and post -construction support for this project. REFERENCE:
