BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND RELEVANCE TO THIS CONTRACT (Include scope, size, and cost) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Summary <br />Coastal Engineering analysis, Storm Surge Analysis, <br />Sea Level Rise, Mangrove Assessment <br />Relevance <br /> The project demonstrates knowledge of large <br /> infrastructure project. <br /> The project demonstrates the ability to work <br /> within a large team. <br /> The project demonstrates knowledge of critical <br /> issues (storm surge and sea level rise) <br /> important to the City. <br /> <br />Project Schedule/ Actual Schedule <br />On schedule. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Scope: Engineer <br />Size: Approximately 50 acres <br />Construction Cost: N/A <br />Description: <br />A technical assessment of design conditions was conducted relative to the North District <br />Wastewater Treatment Plant (NDWWTP) to evaluate potential sea level rise and storm surge <br />impacts as part of the Ocean Outfall Legislation. Global and local sea level rise projections <br />were reviewed relative to application, uncertainty and service life of infrastructure. <br />An evaluation of storm surge impacts was conducted. Historical records along with published <br />data and studies were reviewed relative to application and validity. Relevant data was <br />reviewed, including information regarding historical storm tides in the vicinity, historical <br />hurricane tracks, approach angles, wind direction variations and relationship between storm <br />tide levels and wave impacts. The analysis indicated hurricanes with specific characteristics <br />will cause a higher level of storm tide at NDWWTP and the design hurricane identified. A <br />desktop study was conducted to preliminarily estimate the 100-year storm tide level for the <br />NDWWTP. The preliminary analysis indicated an alternative flooding scenario may exist <br />apart from a direct hit near NDWWTP, which were further analyzed through numerical <br />modeling. <br />Site specific conditions were reviewed relative to their effect on storm tide and associated <br />processes, such as existing mangrove habitat. The probability of events with various return <br />periods were estimated relative to varying service life allowing the Client to make informed <br />decision regarding the design and service life. <br /> <br /> <br />25.
