<br />Well No. 32 Rehabilitation, City of Santa Ana, CA Project Director overseeing the design of the
<br />Well No. 32 rehabilitation project. The project involved the preparation of a PDR, design plans, and
<br />specifications for the rehabilitation of the well facility. The underground well would be scraped, cleaned
<br />and modified to be within an above ground CMU block control building (housing mechanical and
<br />electrical rooms). The design also included a separate on -site generation sodium hypochlorite building,
<br />3,500 feet of 12-inch discharge pipe to John Garthe Reservoir and modification at the reservoir to
<br />connect to the on -site piping.
<br />North Long Beach Collection Main Control Valve Upgrade, Long Beach Water Department, Long
<br />Beach, CA Project Director. Tetra Tech prepared plans and specifications to upgrade an existing flow
<br />control/pressure reducing station, which consists of replacing the 16-inch butterfly valve at Wardlow
<br />Avenue and the pressure transmitter vault within Cherry Avenue. The improvement to these facilities
<br />will allow LBWD to mitigate the open conduit flow it experiences at the high point within the collection
<br />main pipeline by throttling the flow to create backpressure and have the pipeline flow full.
<br />Santa Ana Canvon Rnarl Trnncnlissinn Main and Preccure Rerliicina Sta+inn Nn A7 City of
<br />Anaheim, CA Project Manager for the preparation of plans, specifications, cost estimates and
<br />construction services for the construction of 2,000 linear feet of 36-inch steel pipeline. In addition to the

<br />750 to Zone 640 and Zone 475.
<br />Project Manager. Responsible for the Pressure Reducing Station Upgrades for the District. This
<br />work included the relocation of three pressure reducing stations. The stations were located within the
