VTN is organized and operates around the "project manager" concept. Every
project, no matter what its size, is assigned to a project manager who
then provides liaison with the client as long as VTN is involved. All
VTN disciplines may contribute to a project, yet overall control rests
with the project manager. Another feature of the project management
concept is that of utilizing positive communication techniques in order
to keep the client continually informed of the progress of the work. The
project manager will submit bi- weekly project design status reports to
the City in addition to other project design documentation.
The project will be under the direction of Max B. Johnson, P.E., as
Project Manager in the flood Control and Drainage Department. Additional
personnel from the drainage and streets departments are also available to
participate in the project. Resumes of key employees are enclosed for
your information.

CIVIL AND ENVIRONMENTAL DIVISION
DESCRIPTION AND CAPABILITIES
VTN
CIVIL AND ENVIRONMENTAL DIVISION
VTN's civil and environmental capabilities provide expertise in each of
the basic areas of civil engineering, as follows:
1. Municipal
2. Transporation and Traffic
3. Streets and Highways
4. Structures
5. Flood Control and Drainage
6. Water Systems
7. Environmental Analysis and Management
Each discipline functions as an independent yet fully integrated department
directed by a department manager who is a well qualified and recognized
expert in the particular field. Each department's staff is likewise com-
posed of experienced engineers, designers and draftsmen with extensive back-
ground in their particular field of work.
THE MUNICIPAL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT provides a full complement of govern-
mental oriented engineering services. These include functioning as City
Engineer for municipalities and providing all staff responsibilities in
connection therewith; or serving municipalities that are fully staffed by
providing specialized knowledge and capabilities for engineering oriented
municipal studies, project design reports, engineering design and con-
struction inspection. Utilization of other VTN capabilities permits the
municipal engineering department to also provide preliminary and construction
surveys, aerial photography, water and sewer studies and design, architectural
design, park landscape and recreational facilities design, city planning
and mapping, and such specialized services as dock, marina and airport
design. The department's present activities and past accomplishments
include performance as full City Engineer for cities, design of arterial
highways and local streets, formulation, design and completion of assessment
districts, municipal water and sewer system design, construction inspection
services, plan check of development plans submitted by private developers
to cities, and coordination with state agencies, local districts, railroads
and special commissions on behalf of cities.
THE TRANSPORTATION AND TRAFFIC DEPARTMENT provides specialized services
for the enhancement of the movement of vehicular traffic. The staff is
experienced in the preparation of transportation studies, TOPICS studies
and reports, deficiency studies, needs studies, N.H.S.B. reports, traffic
signal, signing, channelization and illumination design, signal inventory,
time space diagrams, signal network analysis and planning, budgeting,
design, construction inspection and operation and maintenance of all
types of traffic control devices. Other services include illumination
studies and examination of rate structures for lighting systems.
THE STREETS AND HIGHWAYS DEPARTMENT specializes in the engineering design
of specific highway projects including the preparation of design reports,
plans, specifications and engineer's estimates. Projects handled within
this discipline generally fall into the category of arterial highways with
construction costs in excess of $100,000. Services provided include route
studies, preparation of right of way maps, topography plotting and dirt
balancing. In coordination with the traffic department and soils engineers,
the department will make cost comparisons of various structural sections to
determine the most economical pavement design. Full consideration is given
to utility relocations and detouring of existing traffic in determining
overall project costs and inconveniences. By utilizing the capabilities
of other VTN divisions, the streets and highways section can provide the
client with a total package product including traffic control design,
safety lighting, drainage structure design and landscaping, sparing the
client the burden of coordinating the activities of a variety of consul-
tants or depending upon the design consultant to subcontract and supervise
those disciplines. Costs are therefore minimized, resulting in initial
design economies and eliminating sometimes costly field modifications.
THE STRUCTURES DEPARTMENT provides a background of varied experience in
all types of structures. Design capabilities include buildings of all
types and sizes, bridge designs, reservoir structural design, industrial
materials processing plant design and other specialized structures.
Advanced modern equipment is utilized including complex structural analysis
by an in -house IBM 1130 computer. The department's staff of registered
engineers, designers and draftsmen is experienced in use of all structural
materials including reinforced concrete, prestressed concrete, structural
steel, masonry and timber. Services provided include project analysis and
cost estimates, final design, working drawings, specifications, contract
documents and supervision of construction.
THE FLOOD CONTROL AND DRAINAGE DEPARTMENT offers complete services in the
management of natural runoff waters. A diversified professional staff is
complemented by recognized experts in such fields as river hydraulics and
sediment transport who are on call as consultants for special projects.
VTN has designed numerous storm drain systems including over $12,000,000
of LACFCD bond issue projects. The staff has completed contract documents
for the construction of numerous other flood control improvements, in-
cluding major channels and large storm drain pumping stations. Extensive
experience in various federal funding programs assists our clients in ob-
taining supplemental financing aid on many projects. VTN has prepared
master drainage plans for many cities and counties, enabling them to plan
physically and financially for their future drainage needs. Such plans
typically include complete hydrology studies, schematic drawings of required
facilities, complete cost data and, in addition, frequently include complete
financing recommendations. The department has studied special problems as
river marina feasibility studies, flooding problem analysis, erosion, sediment
transport and flood plain investigations. Computer programs have been
developed for special applications and run on the firm's in -house IBM 1130
computer. The firm's photogrammetric capabilities are also utilized for the
preparation of drainage plans where such use might effect substantial cost
savings to the client in addition to providing more comprehensive project
understanding and control during construction.
i1
THE ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT provides a broad background
in impact assessment and Environmental Impact Statement preparation. Founded on
an intimate familiarity with legal requirements and institutional constraints, the
firm's approach to statement preparation is one of comprehensive, systematic, and
interdisciplinary analysis. Individual project environmental settings and study
requirements are evaluated and a multi - disciplined team is mobilized, comprised
of VTN staff members and special consultants. Engineering specialists intimately
familiar with the physical works proposed, environmental engineers, biologists,
ecologists, limnologists, oceanographers, archaeologists, paleontologists, acoustics
experts, economists, sociologists, geologists, meteorologists, and other professionals
may all be called upon to comprise the VTN team developing a comprehensive, balanced
environmental study. Preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement is now a pre-
requisite for an increasing proportion of public works projects, and strenuous efforts
are being pursued in the legislatures and courts to extend the requirements to all
—� public and private works. An intimate working knowledge of the precise nature of
proposed engineering works is a prerequisite to the thorough and accurate identifi-
cation of impacts, and, combined with an imaginative approach, may help realize
environmental potentials obscure to the untrained observer. In instances where
impacts are not acceptable, VTN's engineering expertise may be of substantial value
in the development of practical and acceptable mitigation techniques, and in the
selection of supplemental alternatives for evaluation. Also, knowledge of project
operation in both normal and emergency situations may be required to prepare a
complete, in -depth analysis of environmental risks. VTN's experience at Federal,
State, and local governmental levels helps the firm anticipate special concerns of
the reviewing Environmental Impact Statements, ranging from small residential
developments to the Environmental Impact Statements for the proposed New Orleans
International Airport.
The WATER SYSTEMS DEPARTMENT provides advance planning, project design and contract
administration for the satisfaction of water needs. The department staff performs
studies and investigations of water resources development, system development, master
planning, water quality and treatment analysis, waste water reuse and ground water
conservation and utilization. In addition, the staff is experienced in the design
and preparation of contract documents for storage, transmission, pumping, treatment
and instrumentation facilities. The firm's photogrammetric and computer capabilities
complement the department efforts as the client's needs may require. Other capabi-
lities include facility and system appraisals, rate studies and federal and state
grant program investigation and fund procurement assistance.
