01, <br />construction and maintenance, vessel access during operations, and various issues related to channel <br />and other water -body crossings of a pipeline. <br />Rosemont Geomorphic Study, Hudbay Mining Company, Pima County, AZ. Technical Lead. <br />Prepared the long-term field monitoring protocol for the primary watersheds which drain the proposed <br />Rosemont Copper Mine; and provided the first four applications of the protocol. Six channel monitoring <br />points were designated in the watershed and nine stream reaches were evaluated for possible changes <br />in stream channel regime and sediment load from year to year and ultimately over the life of the mine. <br />Mesa Water District Water Wells No. 12 and No. 14 and Pipeline Project, Initial Study/Mitigated <br />Negative Declaration, Santa Ana, CA. Project Manager. Prepared an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative <br />Declaration for the construction of two new water wells and associated pipelines. Prepared analysis for <br />several CEQA resource topics and assisted with the public hearing for the project. <br />Peak Discharge Study, Six -County Region, Southern California Coastal Water Research <br />Project (SCCWRP), Costa Mesa, CA. Project Manager and Principal Investigator. A groundbreaking <br />investigation of semi -arid watersheds in southern California to evaluate the impacts of urbanization on <br />stream channels. Study selected 10 stream reaches in Los Angeles, Orange and Ventura counties that <br />had historical data on channel size and shape changes. Links were evaluated between those changes <br />and the increases in urban/suburban area over the same time period. This investigation provided an <br />initial basis for county and municipal governments seeking to establish hydromodification permitting <br />goals. <br />Drainage Study, Sapphire Development LLC, Riverside County, CA. Project Manager and Principal <br />Investigator. Prepared hydrologic and hydraulic assessments for a proposed 15-lot development located <br />in a one -square mile drainage at the foot of the Santa Ana Mountains. Modeled watershed runoff using <br />HEC-HMS and floodplain/channel flow using HEC-RAS. Watershed was partly developed (lower end) <br />and partly native vegetation (upper, mountainous end); channel was artificial and located cross -gradient <br />on an alluvial fan. <br />Support for the L55 Line Cover and Repair at Channel Crossings, Enbridge Energy, <br />Montgomery County, KS and Lafayette County, MO. Technical Lead. Provided support for Enbridge <br />Energy in the design of pipeline cover repair at two channel crossings. Dr. Coleman lead a team that <br />provided geomorphic and hydraulic assessments of the proposed designs. Included 2-dimensional <br />hydraulic modeling (HEC-RAS) of channel flow conditions under existing conditions and under <br />proposed conditions. Prepared Technical Memo evaluating the results of these assessments to be used <br />as part of the environmental permitting for the repair work. <br />NRG Renewables, Dust Control Memo for the Daggett Solar Energy Project, San Bernardino <br />County, CA. Task Lead. Supported NRG for environmental permitting of a proposed commercial -scale <br />photovoltaic solar energy project on private land in Daggett, CA. A key component of site development, <br />environmental permitting, and facility maintenance will be managing wind-blown materials at the <br />project site. Tetra Tech prepared a Technical Memo evaluating site conditions with respect to climate <br />(including prevailing winds), topography, cover, and potential for detachment and transport of fine <br />particles. Recommendations for likely and viable mitigation measures were also provided. <br />City of Santa Ana 2 6 <br />
