structures; culverts, pump stations, and other control structures; electrical and mechanical plans; and SCADA plans. The project included coordination with the LACFCD. Special consideration was given to protect the burrowing owl habitat and the legless lizard. Performed legless lizard surveys prior to and during construction. Specifications per Greenbook and special provisions and estimates were also prepared. City of Santa Monica Los Amigos Park Stormwater Harvesting and Direct Use Demonstration This project was the recipient of the 2017 CASQA Outstanding Stormwater Sustainability Project, ASCE Outstanding Small Project, and the Storm Water Solutions magazine Top Stormwater and Erosion Control Project Awards. Design Support for the design of a demonstration project that tapped into an existing storm drain line running along a school athletic field and the City of Santa Monica's Los Amigos Park, rerouted stormwater and dry - weather flows from the storm drain through a vortex system into a cistern, treated the stormwater and dry -weather runoff, and delivered highly -treated water to the park irrigation system and indoor plumbing for toilet flushing. The projects purpose was to demonstrate the feasibility of harvesting local water resources such as storm drain flows to decrease potable water use, reduce polluted urban runoff discharge to the receiving water body, and protect the future of California's water supplies. Tasks performed included: developing a project study report, performing a geotechnical investigation and utility search, preparing design PS&Es, obtaining regulatory approvals, public education and outreach, construction support, preparing a Sampling and Analysis Plan, assisting the City in report preparation, and designing educational signage. City of Culver City Washington Boulevard P3 Urban Runoff Diversion Design Lead assisting with the design of a diversion system to capture stormwater and urban runoff from a drainage area of approximately 40 acres for the City of Culver City. The project is located on Washington Boulevard near Walnut Avenue at the City boundary. The drainage area is comprised of commercial and residential land uses completely within the City boundaries. The system is expected to capture approximately 115,600 cubic feet of stormwater runoff. Tasks include: review of the Geotechnical Investigation Report and Percolation Test Results, developing project concepts for diversion and bio-filtration systems, conducting an environmental study, performing hydrologic and hydraulic analyses and preparing a report, coordinating with the LACDPW, performing a topographic survey, conducting a utility search for the project site to identify existing or planned future utility conflicts along the proposed project components, preparing PS&Es, providing community outreach support, and providing construction support services. City of Beverly Hills Burton Way Median Green Street Project Engineer for the design of bioswales and green street improvements to capture and retain urban runoff on the Burton Way median in the City of Beverly Hills. These improvements will assist the City in complying with the Ballona Creek Watershed EWMP and Ballona Creek Metals TMDL. Designing major aesthetic improvements with efficient landscape design, including drought -tolerant plants that reduce outdoor irrigation use and help the City meet water conservation objectives. Runoff will be used for median irrigation, reducing the need for potable water and there will be up to eight acre-feet of storm water storage beneath the median. The multi -benefit design incorporates walking trails, public art displays and an aesthetically pleasing landscape. It is anticipated that the project will reduce potable water use by approximately 1.25 million gallons per year.
