Igo motiatt & nichol DILIP TRIVEDI, PAGE 2 <br /> bodies including tidal prism, channel geometry changes, flushing time, and potential for levee overtopping <br /> and flooding of developments near South Bay salt ponds. <br /> Benicia Waterfront Marsh Restoration, Benicia, CA USA. Prepared design documents for restoration <br /> of an 8 -acre tidal marsh in an urban setting. The project involved preparing a grading plan with new <br /> channels to increase the frequency of inundation of tidal waters. The grading plan was devised to <br /> minimize the potential for transport of contaminants from specific areas. Also analyzed shoreline stability <br /> to assess the optimum location for the new channel inlets. <br /> Foster City Dredging /Sea Cloud Habitat Enhancement, City of Foster City, CA USA. Project <br /> Manager for dredging design to remove 100,000 cu yds of sediment from the City lagoon. Project <br /> included design for reuse of the sediment at Sea Cloud Park for habitat enhancement. This work <br /> included new levees to contain the dredged material. Final grading and planting was done in accordance <br /> with the Wetlands Mitigation Plan. <br /> Brooklyn Basin Development, Oakland, CA USA. Managed the development of a Shoreline <br /> Improvement and Seismic Retrofit Plan for the planning and permitting phase of the proposed 65 -acre <br /> development project. Prepared preliminary design and permit applications for waterfront improvements <br /> along 1 mile of the .project shoreline, including bulkheads around the marina, wetland development, <br /> revetment structures, seismic retrofit of the Ninth Avenue Pier, and 2 marinas. <br /> Bair Island Restoration Project, Redwood City, Ca Usa. Project Manager for the design and <br /> preparation of bid documents for the restoration of the 1400 acre Bair Island site. The island is part of the <br /> _Don Edwards Wildlife Refuge, which is the largest urban wildlife refuge in the United States. Prepared <br /> design documents for restoration of the former salt ponds, using a combination of dredged material as <br /> well as upland fill material to provide habitat for endangered clapper rails and salt marsh harvest mice. <br /> The project involved designing levees, breaches, hydraulic control structures, dredged material disposal, <br /> a pedestrian bridge, wildlife viewing platforms, and parking /restroom facilities. Coordinated with several <br /> stakeholders including the local sanitation district, PG &E, Army Corps, and San Carlos Airport to obtain <br /> approvals for the project. <br /> Bel Marin Keys Unit V Wetlands Restoration, Novato, CA USA. Led the preparation of a Restoration <br /> and Management Plan that defined land management practices and restoration scenarios to assist the <br /> State, as land owners, to manage the site until such time that dredged material placement starts. <br /> Managed a team of local experts for the interim planning and restoration of the 1,600 acre wetland <br /> restoration project. Currently leading the construction document preparation for the levee construction. <br /> Treasure Island Development, San Francisco, CA, USA. Prepared a coastal flooding study to estimate <br /> the extent of flooding on Treasure Island resulting from tides, waves, tsunamis, and storm surges. The <br /> work was performed to assist in establishing grades for the proposed development and the perimeter <br /> protection. The study included developing several numerical models including wave generation and wave <br /> transformation, and simulating a long term history of coincident high tides and waves, such that extreme <br /> design events could be identified for FEMA review. One of the key work items was assessing the effects <br /> of future Climate Change / Sea Level Rise and developing a management strategy to address the future <br /> changes in water levels and storm intensity. Coordinated with several departments at the City of San <br /> Francisco, and presently assisting the project proponents through the permitting and design phases. <br /> San Pedro Creek Flood Control Project, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Pacifica, CA USA. Prepared <br /> design plans for a flood protection project along San Pedro Creek in the City of Pacifica. Conducted <br /> numerical modeling to design hydraulic cross - sections and estimate crest elevations for the new levees <br /> along both sides of the creek. The analysis involved using the HEC -RAS model to estimate water surface <br /> elevations and velocities along a 1 -mile stretch of San Pedro Creek, and a bypass conduit to reduce <br /> flooding of the homes along the creek. Coordinated with biologists and surveyors to develop a phased <br /> construction document package. <br /> South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project, San Jose, CA USA. Served as the Flood Management <br /> Consultant to the project owners (included local, state, and federal agencies) during the planning and <br /> data acquisition phase of the restoration project. Conducted several task orders over a period of 2 years, <br /> which helped in the planning aspects of the restoration project. Assessed potential interaction of the <br /> restoration project with conveyance facilities (creeks, storm drains, lift stations) in the project area by <br /> investigating historic flooding, channel geometry, and hydrology of the local watersheds. Provided an <br /> analysis of available hydrodynamic, water quality, and sediment transport modeling tools and techniques <br /> for the design and environmental review phases. Assessed Flood management requirements for the <br />
