Sulphur Gulch Channel Improvements
Client: Town of Parker and Urban Drainage and Flood Control District (UDFCD)
Description: RGA designed 850 LF of channel improvements along Sulphur Gulch adjacent to the Bar CCC Park. The project involved evaluation of the alignment, approvals from federal, state and local agencies and construction management. Channel improvements included a sculptured concrete drop structure, grouted riprap grade control structure and buried riprap channel revetment. Design parameters included design coordination with existing bridge abutments and piers, the connection and re-alignment of the Town of Parker Regional Trail System, access from the Bar CCC parking area, and the synchronization with the existing Parker Water and Sanitation District mixing station and associated outfall/channel improvements to Sulphur Gulch at the termination of this project.

Cherry Creek Diversion Facility
Client: Parker Water and Sanitation District
Description: The firm designed a structure on Cherry Creek to divert water to a pump station supplying the Rueter-Hess Reservoir. The final structure has a wide foundation constructed perpendicular to the flow of Cherry Creek with retaining walls along each bank. The project utilized 2,340 CY of reinforced concrete and required a major dewatering effort. The RGA team also completed all construction management and administration for the project.

Master Drainage Plan
Client: Town of Estes Park, Colorado
Description: The Estes Park Drainage Master Plan provides an overall guide for the regionalized study areas to aid in the planning of future actions and improvements. The Plan coordinates the use of open spaces, rights of way, drainage tracts and easements in order to recommend environmentally conscious hydraulic design to remedy existing problems and areas where problems occur. The study area was 1,400 acres and planned for open spaces, transportation, water quality, water storage, flood plain mitigation, wildlife and other emerging urban/commercial considerations.
