<br />WaterlWaste water Utilities and Infrastructure
<br />® Civil engineering forms the backbone of our experience and qualifications to serve as your consulting engineer. In Florida, more than
<br />135 of Kimley- Horn's more than 430 - person staff are professionally registered civil engineers. At Kimley -Horn we have experienced
<br />® professionals in water and wastewater system design and planning, utility engineering, site planning and master planning, and
<br />® hydraulic modeling, among others. The team presented here has been responsible for the planning, design, start up, and expansion
<br />® of some of the largest and longest operating membrane water treatment plants in the state. The firm's specific water main design
<br />capabilities encompass all planning, design, permitting, and construction phase services required from the onset of a project through
<br />® the approval process and bringing the system online. We have a large list of design projects, including water mains, water storage
<br />® facilities, wells, raw water systems, pumping stations, and metering stations. Our team also has the expertise to provide you with
<br />® the services related to wastewater infrastructure, including pump station design, force main systems, gravity systems, 1/1 studies,
<br />and mapping of sewer systems on GIS. Our services routinely include designing under strict regulatory compliance conditions,
<br />® coordinating with existing utilities to avoid underground conflicts, and integrating with existing on -site systems.
<br />Kimley -Horn recently provided a force main route evaluation report, design services, and permitting for the installation of over 13,000
<br />linear feet of new 16 -inch force main that included three horizontal directional drills (HDD) for the City of North Bay Village. The new
<br />force main eliminated the need for North Bay Village to repump wastewater through the City of Miami Beach and provided a direct
<br />connection to the Miami -Dade Water and Sewer Department wastewater system. Kimley -Horn provided design -build drawings,
<br />hydraulic modeling, 'front end" documents, and associated opinions of probable construction costs. Kimley -Horn also obtained the
<br />necessary environmental permits through the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the Army Corp of Engineers
<br />(ALOE) for the HDD's. The project was submitted to the State and approved for over 3.5 million dollars of grant funding through the
<br />American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). Kimley -Horn also provided construction documents and permitting documentation
<br />for the rehabilitation of main wastewater pump stations for the City of North Bay Village and the Town of Bay Harbor Islands. Both
<br />projects included analyzing the existing pumping and control equipment to develop a rehabilitation approach to increase system
<br />efficiency, reduce system maintenance, and provide a reliable, redundant pump station to better serve the municipalities.
<br />Permit Agency Coordination
<br />We have also provided a hydraulic analysis of Martin County's entire
<br />wastewater system with over 200 miles of gravity sewer, several thousand
<br />manholes, and over 50 miles of force mains. This included analyzing
<br />hydraulic capacity of the force main system, understanding the operation
<br />of lift stations, and evaluating growth areas within the system. Project
<br />components include establishing the current and future demands, lift
<br />station run time hours, and pump curve data. Our depth of resources
<br />means that you will benefit from experienced professionals who practice
<br />civil engineering for municipalities every day. At Kimley -Horn, we have the
<br />in -house capabilities to provide you with any civil engineering need you
<br />may have.
<br />The firm's engineers and planners maintain regular contact with virtually all key regulatory agencies and their decision makers. This
<br />rich network of interpersonal relationships enables us to provide expeditious services relative to agency reviews and approvals. Our
<br />staff not only understands agency procedures, but also their expectations, enabling us to minimize delays and rework of our clients'
<br />submittals.
<br />Our staff members make it a habit to stay well informed about the latest changes and status of rules affecting utility and
<br />environmental permitting and regulation. They are well equipped to assist you with permitting and mitigation program development
<br />processes.
<br />® Our firm has successfully represented clients before numerous federal, state, and local agencies including regional planning councils;
<br />® the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; the Florida Department of Environmental Protection; water management districts; Miami -Dade
<br />County Permitting, Environmental, and Regulatory Affairs (PERA); Miami -Dade County Water and Sewer Department; and Miami-
<br />Dade County Public Works. We are experienced in preparing permit applications for these agencies, know what is required to gain
<br />® approval, and excel in providing the high level of coordination that facilitates the permitting process.
