Meadowbrook Subdivision

Meadowbrook Subdivision, Lake in the Hills, Illinois
Residential subdivision that involved the complete re-grading of the regulatory floodplain and the channel restoration of the Kiswaukee Creek. Approximately 2,000 feet of the channel was restored to a more natural floodplain with the addition of a bridge crossing.

West Branch of Big Rock Creek, Hinckley, Illinois
Performed an analysis to determine the regulatory floodplain and floodway limits of an unmapped reach of the West Branch of Big Rock Creek. The project included analysis of a 15,600 acre watershed and 2,400 LF of creek to establish the floodplain limits.

Peach Creek Subdivision

Peach Creek Subdivision, Lisle, Illinois
A residential subdivision, including two culvert crossings of Rott Creek and floodplain modifications evaluated with FEQ and steady state hydraulic models.

Pingree Creek Restoration, Elgin, Illinois
Analyzed an 8,400 acre watershed tributary to a 740 acre mixed use project site (including traditional neighborhood design), established new regulatory peak flows for the upstream watershed and extended the floodplain and floodway limits for 22,000 feet of Pingree Creek. Developed a design to meander and restore a wide floodplain corridor for 2,400 feet of Pingree Creek through the project site. Open space improvements include a 50 acre offline lake adjacent to the restored creek, as well as 19 onsite stormwater management basins.

Knightsbridge Parkway Extension, Lincolnshire, Illinois
Developed stormwater management design and obtained associated stormwater and wetland permits for the construction of a new public roadway through floodplain/wetland area within Indian Creek watershed. Design included cross culverts that were designed to pass the 100 year flows from the upstream watershed to an adjacent wetland. Permitting included developing partnership between the Village, the Army Corps of Engineers and the Lake County Forest Preserve for restoration and long term ownership of floodplain/wetland complex.
