Red Bug Lake Road Regional Stormwater Facility Design
Casselberry, FL
The primary objective of this project was to design and permit a regional stormwater facility (RSF) on the County parcel prior to its discharge to Lake Howell. The design included a public access boat ramp and limited boat trailer parking. The stormwater facility addressed flooding issues, water quality treatment, erosion and sedimentation control. The project included a re-evaluation of the existing outfall infrastructure system, topographical survey of the project area, geotechnical investigation of the subsurface, and installation of a gage station to evaluate flow and water quality of the existing stormwater discharge.
Construction plans and specifications for the proposed RSF were prepared. Permitting was done through the St. Johns River Water Management District. Public opinion was important to this project, and several public presentations were conducted. Specific tasks included data collection and review, soil survey and geotechnical data, hydrologic and hydraulic evaluation and engineering design, environmental and regulatory permitting, stormwater sample collection and analysis, and project coordination and scheduling.
