Project Civil Engineer, St. Bernard Parish, Chalmette Loop Levee, Caernarvon Structures Reach 149, New Orleans, LA

A project team was formed to design a part of the levee system protecting New Orleans. This project was designed for the HPO, and the New Orleans and St. Paul Districts of USACE. This levee completed this phase of the new levee system which ties into the MS river levee and included a sector gate, flood wall, rail road gate and a highway gate. My responsibilities included the civil designs for Norfolk-Southern railroad gate closure and Highway 39 gate closure including technical coordination. The project included a temporary detour of traffic for the construction of the highway gate, demolition of the old highway and rail road gates, a permanent access road for emergency vehicles to use when the highway gate was closed due to a hurricane and the design of the highway 39 improvements in the vicinity of the new gate.

Project Engineer, Section 205, Small Flood Control Study, Wynne, AR, Prepared for the USACE, Memphis District

The study addressed the flooding and three proposed flood control measures along Town Creek in Wynne, AR. Utilized the HEC-RAS program to develop flood profiles and establish cost benefit analysis for each of the three alternatives.

Project Engineer, Drainage Improvements for Autozone Park, Memphis, TN

This project was a design of a two million dollar drainage project to relieve flooding in the downtown of the City of Memphis. The project consisted of developing the drainage map and research to determine the cause of the flooding; Then designing a practical solution which consisted of both open cut trenches and of boring pipes under a busy downtown street. An important aspect of the project was to design the temporary traffic control to keep the traffic flowing during construction.
