129 <br /> <br /> <br />Coastal Systems led a multi-disciplinary team in the <br />design of 24 acres of Maurice A. Ferré Park. Maurice A. <br />Ferré Park was planned by the City of Miami as a <br />waterfront revitalization in the heart of downtown on <br />Biscayne Bay. The $11.5M park incorporates a <br />waterfront promenade, Baywalk and plaza. <br /> <br />Coastal Systems provided civil engineering and <br />environmental permitting services. The stormwater <br />management system consists of a combination of <br />exfiltration trenches, retention area within the park, and <br />outfalls to the bay. The stormwater system was designed <br />to meet the stringent guidelines for treating stormwater <br />runoff on-site for this waterfront park that is adjacent to <br />the environmentally sensitive Biscayne Bay. <br /> <br />An Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) was processed <br />through Miami-Dade County Regulatory and Economic <br />Resources (RER) for the stormwater management <br />system. Coastal Systems also prepared and processed <br />the NPDES and FDOT permits for the project. Potable <br />water and sanitary sewer utility services were also <br />designed for the Park. Service connections were <br />coordinated with Miami-Dade County WASD which <br />included the preparation of documents for the service <br />agreement with the City. Easements for the new water <br />lines, including fire hydrants, were established, and <br />designed. <br /> <br />Due to the site’s historical use as the original Port of <br />Miami, contaminated soils were present in the form of <br />petroleum and arsenic. Coastal Systems led the <br />environmental team in preparing a soil management <br />plan to bring the site into compliance and provide a <br />clean and safe environment for the public’s use. <br /> <br />The park’s Louis Poulsen light fixtures and Baywalk <br />design are now established as the design standard by the <br />Downtown Development Authority (DDA) for the <br />proposed City Baywalk-Riverwalk to encompass Biscayne <br />Bay and the Miami River. <br /> <br />Apart from the upland development, the large vessel <br />mooring facility, located within the existing basin <br />adjacent to the American Airlines Arena, was also <br />designed and permitted by Coastal Systems. <br /> <br />MMaauurriiccee AA..
