City of Sunny Isles Beach Continuing Professional Consulting Services (CCNA) Page 7 <br />RFQ No. 20-07-01; Structural Engineering and Environmental Engineering <br /> Cummins Cederberg, Inc. <br />South Miami ▪ Fort Lauderdale ▪ Jupiter ▪ Tallahassee <br />Ph: 305-741-6155 ▪ www.CumminsCederberg.com <br />47th Street Beach Restoration is a 20,000-cubic yard beach fill <br />project in Miami Beach, where the shoreline experienced <br />significant retreat following a series of storms. The beach area <br />fronts several upscale condominiums and hotels, who were <br />requesting prompt resolution. The exposure of the upland <br />infrastructure required Cummins Cederberg to work under an <br />accelerated timeline to submit permit applications and <br />engineering drawings in less than one week. <br /> <br />Crandon Marina Sedimentation Impacts evaluated and <br />determined the source and cause of sedimentation within the <br />Crandon Marina in Biscayne Bay, and provided solutions to <br />ongoing shoaling issues. Surveying, marine resource mapping, <br />sediment sampling, and tide and current measurements were <br />performed. A detailed hydrodynamic numerical model was <br />developed to simulate the tidal flow within Biscayne Bay and <br />specifically the tidal flow patterns at the site. Concepts to <br />eliminate or reduce the sedimentation were later developed. <br /> <br />Coco Plum Beach Erosion and Design involved preparing a beach design involving coastal structures <br />to provide long term stability, as well as a benthic survey to quantify potential impacts to the nearshore <br />seagrass habitat. <br /> <br />Aquazul Dune Restoration included the permitting, design, and <br />construction of a dune fronting a luxury condominium in Fort <br />Lauderdale. The existing dune had eroded and was vegetated <br />with invasive species not suitable for dunes. The project <br />demonstrated that coastal resiliency and the desire to protect <br />upland structures can be combined with enhancing <br />environmental conditions. <br /> <br />City of Marathon Coastal Resiliency Modeling are numerical model scenarios created by Cummins <br />Cederberg of sea level rise projections for the entire City as well as an evaluation of the use of several <br />resiliency and protection strategies. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />In summary, Cummins Cederberg is fully qualified for the requested services with education and <br />experience specifically focused in the coastal and marine environment. Our specialized experience <br />includes marine structural engineering, waterfront engineering, construction inspections, environmental <br />permitting, biological surveys and monitoring, coastal engineering studies, coastal modeling, beach <br />restoration and management, and processing FEMA funding. <br /> <br />We recognize the needs of the City an exceptional understanding of successfully executing similar <br />projects and understand that if selected we will meet any location, budget, or task order that may arise.
