Stormwater management
Larger residential and commercial projects have to meet New Jersey’s stormwater rules (N.J.A.C. 7:8) and local ordinances for runoff quantity, quality and groundwater recharge. I prepare the hydrologic analysis (NJ TR-55), design the system and write the stormwater management report.
Green infrastructure
Current rules favor green infrastructure such as infiltration basins, bioretention, porous pavement and subsurface recharge. In Kinnelon, I designed the subsurface drainage system for the first project to satisfy the NJ Highlands Council’s Major Development criteria for groundwater recharge.
NJDEP permitting
- Freshwater Wetlands Letters of Interpretation (LOI) to establish wetland boundaries and buffers
- Flood Hazard Area compliance for work near streams and floodplains
- Watershed delineation and GIS mapping to support applications
Earlier in my career I prepared the NJDEP Flood Hazard permit package and floodplain-fill mitigation for NJ TRANSIT’s Passaic–Bergen light rail project.
