GOVERNMENT PROJECTS

Crowder's Mountain Dam Restoration

Restoration design of the Crowder's Mountain Dam located in GASTON COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA.

Investigation of the Crowder's Mountain Dam located in Gaston County, North Carolina. The objective of the project was to identify obvious conditions that may lead to structural failure of the existing spillway and assess whether immediate repair was warranted. A down-hole camera was utilized to inspect the principal spillway and to determine replacement and repair of the existing spillway barrel, pictured lower right. The results of the investigation concluded that slip lining the barrel of the principal spillway was the most feasible alternative. As part of our design we also prepared an Emergency Action Plan and an Operations Maintenance Plan.

RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS

Shadow Creek Subdivision

Shadow Creek is an 18 lot single family subdivision located in CORNELIUS, NORTH CAROLINA.

Shadow Creek is an 18 lot single family subdivision located in Cornelius, North Carolina. The design of this project had many design and regulatory challenges. The existing pond was breeched by the previous owner and required permits from the North Carolina Division of Water Quality and the Corps of Engineers to rehabilitate the dam and fill the pond. The developer wanted to save as many trees as possible and work with the existing topography to minimize the impacts to the wooded site. In order to do this, the roads had to be designed as private streets to utilize more relaxed design standards. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Utility Department accepted the sanitary sewer as a public system (in a private street), but would not accept the water system since the streets were private. The water system had to be designed and submitted to the North Carolina Department of Environment & Natural Resources for approval as a private system. There were also design challenges due to the watershed buffers associated with the project’s proximity to Lake Norman. The result of the design and engineering efforts of MEADE-CIVIL Engineering, PLLC engineering & surveying is one of the most beautiful subdivisions in the area with stands of mature trees and natural open spaces.
