Seattle - Everett Commuter Rail Project,
Seattle Washington - Task manager for noise and
vibration analysis of commuter rail traffic on a 30 mile
corridor of existing freight train track. Responsible
for measuring and analyzing existing noise and vibration
conditions, measuring vibration propagation characteristics,
and predicting potential noise and vibration impacts due
to the added use of the corridor for commuter rail traffic.
Will also analyze potential impacts near seven proposed
transit stations for traffic noise impacts. Responsible
for writing noise and vibration results report, interfacing
with client, and attending public meetings.
Lane County Transit District Rapid
Transit Corridor, Eugene Oregon - Task manager
for noise and vibration analysis of proposed rapid bus
transit corridor. Analysis requirements include predicting
potential noise impacts due to added bus only transit
lanes, park and rides associated with the transit corridor,
public meetings, interfacing with the client, and authoring
noise technical report.
Portland Interstate Light Rail Project
- Task manager for noise and vibration analysis on a
local service light rail corridor between the Portland
Rose Quarter and the Portland Expo Center. Analysis
includes the calculation of future conditions for each
of the alternative track alignments. Responsible for
authoring noise and vibration results report, interfacing
with client, establishing a noise and vibration focus
groups and attending public meetings.
Seattle Light Rail Project, Seattle
Washington - Task manager for noise and vibration
analysis on a 20 mile corridor of proposed light rail
track. Responsible for measuring and analyzing existing
noise and vibration conditions, measuring vibration
propagation characteristics, and predicting potential
noise and vibration impacts. This project also includes
approximately 7 miles of LRT alignment in tunnel and
the use of an existing bus tunnel in the downtown Seattle
area. Will also analyze potential impacts near proposed
transit stations for traffic noise impacts, and analyze
potential impacts due to added bus routes that are part
of the project. Responsible for co-authoring noise and
vibration results report, interfacing with client, establishing
a noise and vibration focus group and attending public
meetings.

Tacoma Light Rail Project, Tacoma
Washington - Task manager for noise and vibration
analysis on a 5 mile corridor of proposed light rail
track. Responsible for measuring and analyzing existing
noise and vibration conditions, measuring vibration
propagation characteristics, and predicting potential
noise and vibration impacts. Will also analyze potential
impacts near proposed transit stations for traffic noise
impacts, and analyze potential impacts due to added
bus routes that are part of the project. Responsible
for co-authoring noise and vibration results report
and interfacing with client.

Tacoma - Lakewood Commuter Rail Project,
Tacoma Washington - Task manager for noise and
vibration analysis on a 15 mile corridor of existing
freight train track. Responsible for measuring and analyzing
existing noise and vibration conditions, measuring vibration
propagation characteristics, and predicting potential
noise and vibration impacts due to the added use of
the corridor for commuter rail traffic. Will also analyze
potential impacts near proposed transit stations for
traffic noise impacts. Responsible for writing noise
and vibration results report, interfacing with client,
and attending public meetings.
Seattle Monorail Project Review - Reviewed the Seattle Monorail EIS and noise and vibration technical reports for details on methodogoly and analysis. Made recomendations and comments on analysis methods, interpration of FTA criteria and comments on NEPA - SEPA conformity. Found several issues that could results in future problems and made recomendations for corrections to report and EIS.
Metro North/South Light Rail Environmental
Impact Statement Noise Technical Report, Portland, Oregon
- Task manager for noise and vibration analysis on a
20 mile corridor of proposed light rail track. Measured
existing condition noise and vibration levels along
over 20 miles of proposed track alignments between Vancouver,
Washington, and Clackamas, Oregon. Analysis includes
the calculation of future conditions for each of the
alternative track alignments and a no-build scenario.
Derived a noise impact cost effectiveness criteria for
the project, interfaced with client, and co-authored
noise and vibration technical results report.

Lane County Transit District Bus
Transfer Station, Eugene, Oregon - Performed
noise study for environmental assessment of a new transit
center in Eugene Oregon. Calculated potential noise
impacts due to the relocation of bus transfer centers
to a unified location in downtown Eugene area. Performed
indoor and outdoor noise measurements of a nearby retirement
center and suggested mitigation measures that included
upgrading the retirement facility and/or installation
of acoustic absorbing material at the transfer center.
Lane County Transit District Operational
and Maintenance Facility Expansion, Eugene Oregon
- Task manager for noise analysis of a major expansion
to the existing O&M facility in Eugene Oregon. Measured
24 - hour noise levels, predicted future noise levels
with expansion, and authored noise technical report.
Construction of the Hillsboro Extension
for the Portland Light Rail System, Hillsboro Oregon
- Performed noise analysis for the installation of new
bridges and track bed on the six mile Hillsboro Light
Rail extension. Met with officials from the Oregon Primate
Research Center and arranged detailed noise and vibration
monitoring near the research facility.
Construction of Tri-Met Light Rail
Tunnel, Portland Oregon - Performed construction
noise abatement on the construction of two 3-mile light
rail tunnels. Performed noise mitigation due to surface
and tunnel blasting on the first mile of each tunnel.
Other noise services included miscellaneous construction
and mining equipment, including a 21 foot diameter hard
rock tunnel boring machine , shown below.

Lane County Transit Park and Ride,
Springfield Oregon - Performed noise study for
the environmental impact statement for the addition
of a Park and Ride facility for the East Side of Springfield,
Oregon. Performed transit related and traffic noise
analysis in accordance with FTA and ODOT regulations.
Construction of the Lane County Transit
Bus Transfer Station, Eugene, Oregon - Derived
a construction noise impact criteria for the construction
of the Downtown Eugene Bus Transfer Center. Recommenced
maximum noise levels and work hours for the project
such that they would not interfere with the operation
of a movie theater and a retirement facility. |
