The Downtown Storage Basin will be the “capstone project” of the Toledo Waterways Initiative (TWI) Program and involve the construction of a new 16MG equalization basin with three (3) 50HP dewatering pumps, 740LF of 108” tunnel, roughly 1,500 LF of sanitary conveyance sewers ranging from 8” to 72” and the modification of four (4) existing drop shafts to the existing CSO Storage Tunnel under Superior Street. Adam was responsible as the Project Director to coordinate all in-house disciplines and sub-consultants required for the completion of the detailed design, including civil, process hydraulics, geotechnical, structural, architectural, mechanical and electrical design staff. The project design was completed on time and well under budget to the benefit of the City. Additionally, Adam assisted in the completion of pre-qualification of contractors for the construction of these improvements. The construction contract was awarded at a cost of $43.9MM and commenced in September 2017. Final completion of the improvements is anticipated in May 2020 to meet the USEPA Consent Decree issued to the City of Toledo.

Led the detailed design and construction phase engineering efforts for over 3,000 LF of 108” pipeline, junction chambers, regulator modifications and site restoration on South Cove Boulevard from Monroe Street to Ayers Avenue. The new system will provide 1.1MG of in-line storage to aid in abating overflow events to the Ottawa River from Regulator No. 65 on Ayers. Additionally, Adam was responsible for the plan development for the roadway replacement along South Cove from Auburn to and including the intersection of Monroe. This project was completed in June 2013 with a construction value of $6.6MM.
