Work History

Water Resource Technician Co-op, On-Site

TULLOCH Engineering
01.2024 - 04.2024
  • Engineered low-impact development solutions, including enhanced grassed swales, infiltration trenches, bio-retention cells, utilizing Excel for calculations to meet enhanced water quality standards, modelled on PCSWMM
  • Designed efficient stormwater storage systems to ensure post development runoff rates were below predevelopment levels, including super pipe storage and attenuation ponds, designed using Civil 3D, to meet water quantity requirements
  • Performed hydrological analyses, using the modified rational method and IDF Curve data for calculating site runoff volumes and utilized tools like Google Earth and GIS for geospatial analysis and Agmaps for soil type assessment
  • Collaborated with aquatic biologists to design ecologically sensitive culverts that facilitate aquatic species migration, using HY-8 and Civil 3D, resulting in enhanced biodiversity and ecosystem health around project sites
  • Managed on-site construction inspections, ensuring that all projects adhered to design specifications and established safety protocols
  • Calculated sanitary discharge, water demand, fire flows according to municipal requirements and produced high quality functional servicing and stormwater management reports
  • Created detailed design drawings of grading, site servicing and erosion and sediment control plans.
