Projects
Miami-Dade County Stormwater Management Master Plans:
ADA has developed stormwater management plans for the South Florida Water Management District C-1, C-8 and C-9 East Basins in Miami-Dade County, ranging is size from 30 to 100 square miles. ADA is currently developing the Stormwater Management Master Plan for the C-6 Basin (Miami River) encompassing approximately 70 square miles of Miami-Dade County. These stormwater management master plans address flood protection and reduction of pollutant discharges to Biscayne Bay.
Everglades Agricultural Areas (EAA) Storage Reservoirs Project Implementation Report:
ADA assisted in the development, calibration and verification of the hydrologic and hydraulic models for the implementation of a regional 60,000-acre storage reservoir to be constructed as part of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP). The MIKE SHE/MIKE 11 model was used to assess the existing flooding conditions and irrigation demands of the 950 square-mile EAA Watershed, which receives discharges from Lake Okeechobee and discharges agricultural runoff to Everglades National Park.
City of Lauderhill Watershed Assessment:
 ADA is responsible for evaluating the existing flooding conditions, drainage infrastructure systems, and canal network throughout the City of Lauderhill to identify flooding and water quality problems. ADA updated the City's Stormwater Management Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), which identifies the high priority improvement projects that will address critical flooding and water quality problems. As part of the CIP implementation, ADA has prepared, expedited and obtained the Environmental Resources Permits (ERPs) for the construction of two required drainage pump stations within the City. ADA has also designed and permitted required culvert replacement, canal dredging and bank stabilization projects to improve the City's stormwater conveyance capacity and flood protection level of service.
