James Madison University Trash Compactor Relocation
Relocating critical infrastructure and designing for long-term stormwater compliance.
Our Client
Founded in 1908, James Madison University is a public university located in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley. JMU is fast becoming one of the nation’s leading lights in higher education because students enjoy unusually engaged relationships with world-class faculty who are here because they want to pursue knowledge and make teaching their No. 1 priority. Project Description
Colman Engineering provided civil engineering services to support the relocation of JMU’s trash compactor from the Festival Center to a new site on South Main Street. The project included a site survey to map existing structures and utilities, a geotechnical investigation to evaluate subsurface conditions, and the design of a site layout, grading plan, and structural plans for the concrete pad, dock, stairs, and railing. Additionally, Colman Engineering developed an erosion and sediment control plan and a stormwater management plan to meet DEQ water quantity, quality, and channel protection requirements. The stormwater plan was designed to address current site conditions as well as phased future development, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations as the site evolves. |
