&ASSOCIATES <br />Civil and Environmental Engineers <br />FIRM PROFILE & APPROACH - CONTINUED <br />General Approach <br />The City of Sunny Isles Beach has requested the qualifications of a Professional Engineering <br />Firm to address the needs of the Atlantic Isles community. The scope includes: design of <br />sanitary sewer collection system; lift station design; drainage improvements; resurfacing of the <br />existing road and design of the street lighting; and coordination for the under - grounding of the <br />existing overhead power lines. <br />Existing Sanitary Sewer System within City Limits <br />Design <br />A new lift station to handle flows <br />from an areas previously serviced <br />by septic tanks requires a unique <br />approach during construction. <br />Special attention should be given <br />to the allowable time residents <br />are given to connect to the new <br />system. Since residents can not <br />realistically connect at the same <br />time to the new system, design <br />flows are not achieved <br />immediately. The pump cycle <br />time at the station will be longer <br />than designed. This could lead to <br />sewer going septic and emitting <br />odor to the neighborhood. Chen <br />and Associates has worked on <br />similar sanitary sewer projects <br />where we selected wet wells that <br />could handle the initial low flows <br />while maintaining reasonable <br />pump cycle time. We have <br />worked closely with the <br />residents, City staff, and City <br />officials to expedite the <br />connection to new sanitary sewer <br />systems. <br />"Providing quality, responsive and professional service to clients, peers and the public for 20 years" <br />x <br />M R <br />19380 <br />[AM1 pQ�Qlt <br />.�—{.. <br />:9197 r <br />1919 <br />1 <br />L <br />190TH � <br />�'":.a <br />Sunny) <br />•�• )sera <br />(West oun <br />1 <br />�11 1 i- :_ <br />• WITH <br />1i <br />��•,�: ' 08. <br />.q <br />"'EO nsrH. <br />WIN�YOPI �T.TH � <br />VHNnMEU � <br />c <br />LEGEND <br />YISLES r <br />SUNNY ISL <br />LIFT STATION <br />• SEWER LINE <br />an'� <br />FORCE MAIN (WASD) <br />OSUNNY ISLES CITY UMTS <br />- <br />IXISTI NG SEPTIC TANKAREA •I <br />t 61 <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach <br />Etdsting Sanitary Sewer System <br />0 750 1500 3p00 Feet <br />L <br />Existing Sanitary Sewer System within City Limits <br />Design <br />A new lift station to handle flows <br />from an areas previously serviced <br />by septic tanks requires a unique <br />approach during construction. <br />Special attention should be given <br />to the allowable time residents <br />are given to connect to the new <br />system.
