25, 2006 - Moore Engineering Receives Honors
Moore
Engineering, Inc. was recently honored by the North Dakota Council of
Engineering Companies for engineering excellence in water resources
for the Eagle Run/Rendezvous Park Interconnected Storm Water Retention
System in West Fargo and in transportation for the 13th Avenue West
Reconstruction Project also in West Fargo.
The
Eagle Run/Rendezvous Park Interconnected Storm Water Retention System
was designed to control storm water runoff during large rainfall events
and introduce water quality measures for storm water for a rapidly growing
area while providing for aesthetics within park areas. It also includes
a natural rock formation, waterfall and meandering creek outlet for
one of the ponds.
The
13th Avenue West Reconstruction Project consisted of replacing an existing
rural roadway section with no pedestrian facilities with an urbanized
concrete street with decorative street lights, trees, bushes, medians,
and pedestrian walkways all designed to produce traffic calming and
provide a pedestrian friendly environment through the City's central
park.
The
Eagle Run/Rendezvous Park Interconnected Storm Water Retention System
also received the “Gold Star Award” in the Path and Trails Category
from the North Dakota Ready Mix & Concrete Products Association.
