cabinets, transformers, and switchgear. P&D coordinated with all other underground utilities, provided construction assistance, and prepared as-built drawings at completion of the project. Town of Palm Beach Electrical Undergrounding Palm Beach, FL Completion Date: 2016 The Town of Palm Beach wanted to replace overhead wires (power, cable and phone) along the roadways within three specific areas. The overhead lines would be replaced with new underground lines that would bear less than 10 feet below the pavement grade (usually at about 3 feet deep). The subject areas included. ▪ North End: All the roadways between Onondaga Avenue north to East Inlet Drive ▪ South End: The eastern shoulder of South Ocean Boulevard, from about 3031 to about 3456 South Ocean Boulevard ▪ Ibis Isle: All the roadways within Ibis Isle Terracon Consultants, Inc. (Terracon) provided geotechnical study services and geotechnical engineering recommendations for the subject areas. The firm’s field testing/exploration program included obtaining underground utility clearance and right-of-way (ROW) permits, drilling Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings, core samples, and maintenance of traffic (MOT) plan. The recovered asphalt cores were measured for thickness, and the base and subgrade materials were visually examined in Terracon’s laboratory to determine their engineering classification. The firm also provided recommendations pertaining to subsoils that require removal (if any), excavations, dewatering, pipe bedding, backfill materials, and compaction requirements. Kendall Lake Neighborhood Stormwater Project Pompano Beach, FL Completion Date: 2016 The City of Pompano Beach planned to improve the stormwater management system within the residential neighborhood known as Kendall Lake. The improvements would consist of the installation of drainage inlets, pipelines, horizontal exfiltration trenches and a retention area. Vertical exfiltration trenches installed to 20 feet deep were also being evaluated as a potential stormwater management component for this project. Terracon drilled SPT borings along the proposed pipeline alignment and permeability tests within areas of the proposed drainage improvements. The firm also provided information regarding the impacts of subsoils on the design and construction of the project, and appropriate geotechnical oriented
