<br />CES CONSULTANTS, INC.
<br />Carla Hernandez has over 10 years of experience supporting infrastructure projects with a focus
<br />on stormwater systems, utility coordination, and construction cost analysis. She brings a strong
<br />foundation in engineering design and permitting processes, complemented by prior roles in
<br />construction management and estimating. Carla’s expertise includes reviewing existing utility and
<br />drainage conditions, supporting hydrologic and hydraulic analysis, preparing technical exhibits and
<br />construction drawings, and assisting in the development of cost-effective stormwater improvement
<br />concepts. She is proficient in AutoCAD, GIS-based data review, and modeling support workflows,
<br />and holds NASSCO PACP certification to assess system conditions. Carla also contributes to
<br />construction cost estimation, quantity takeoffs, and constructability evaluations, making her a key
<br />technical resource in both planning and early-stage design phases. Her well-rounded background
<br />ensures seamless support across multidisciplinary teams and alignment with municipal standards
<br />and project objectives.
<br />West Avenue North Neighborhood Utility and Resiliency Improvements, Miami Beach, FL: Staff
<br />Engineer. The project includes the verification and development of a stormwater model, a new 120,000
<br />GPM master stormwater pump station, and the design, vertical rehabilitation, harmonization, and
<br />ultimate construction of 2.2 miles of roadway, sidewalks, landscaping, and related infrastructure,
<br />including water meter service conversions from the rear of private properties to new water lines and
<br />connections in the right-of-way.
<br />First Street Neighborhood Improvement Project, Miami Beach, FL: Staff Engineer providing
<br />integrated engineering design services for a new stormwater pump station and stormwater treatment
<br />facility to serve the South of Fifth/South Pointe Neighborhood, under a Miami Beach Integrated
<br />Water Master Plan CSC, including improvements to storm drainage, potable water, wastewater, road
<br />raising, and streetscaping.
<br />City of Miami Gardens, Drainage Improvements for Annexed Area, Miami Gardens, FL: Staff
<br />Engineer. Assisting with the design and implementation of a stormwater management system to
<br />address severe flooding in a newly annexed industrial area with high tractor-trailer activity. The area
<br />annexed from Miami-Dade County is bounded by NE 181st Street to the north, NW 176th Street to the
<br />south, I-95 to the east, and NW 2nd Avenue to the west.
<br />City of Largo GES Task Order: Starkey Road Basin Management Plan (BMP) Projects, Largo, FL: Staff
<br />Engineer assisting in the design of several stormwater project best management practices for the
<br />City of Largo Channel 10 and its tributary structures. The overall project objective is to develop plans
<br />and specifications, and related project permit applications, for project bidding and construction, and
<br />other professional engineering work.
<br />MDWASD Engineering, Design and Related Services for the Local Pump Station Improvement
<br />Program, Miami-Dade County, FL: Staff Engineer providing for the inspection/evaluation, analysis
<br />and design of multiple sanitary sewer lift stations ranging from 20 HP to 60 HP and associated
<br />force mains. The challenges found in designing these upgrades relate to two items. First, meeting
<br />the FEMA Base Flood Elevation for some of these small locations while maintaining operations and
<br />maintenance protocols is a challenge. Under this contract, we have converted several wet well / dry
<br />well systems into submersible stations. These conversions are requiring significant structural design
<br />to reuse the existing facilities. This effort is more cost effective than installing a new wet well. The
<br />pump stations she has worked on include PS0132, PS0464, and PS0659.
