TIMOTHY J. BECK, PG
FULTON COUNTY, GENERAL SERVICE CONTRACT FOR STORMWATER BASIN AND POND INVENTORY AND RETROFIT –
FULTON COUNTY, STATE GEORGIA. As Project Manager Mr. Beck coordinated the project. The scope encompassed
the review of three major Watersheds in Fulton County for Water Quality enhancements. This involved the inventory
and condition survey of over 2,000 structures and ponds in three major watersheds. Additionally, reviewing 303 (d)
listed stream and their respective upstream watershed land use and other potential related characteristics. The
project identified many non-inventoried Public and Private Stormwater ponds that were not serving their intended
propose or were not being maintained as designed. The program resulted in recommending many watersheds for
retrofitting from Retention/Detention Pond to Water Quality ponds. Water quality monitoring was performed as
needed, and designs were provided for typical retrofits or maintenance repairs. Repair work orders were prepared to
immediate problems or safety issues. We also drafted policies, for the County to include in proposed Ordinances and
design Standards to better control future development. Policies for maintenance enforcement, and to acquire private
ponds for potential Water Quality BMP’s were drafted.
GREENSFERRY BASIN – ATLANTA, GEORGIA. Mr. Beck served as Project Manager for this project where a Quality
Level “B” subsurface utility engineering effort was performed. The Greensferry Basin Sewer/Water Replacement
project involved approximately 10.89 mile project section. We identified multiple active utility targets and abandoned
features such as street car tracks, UST’s, building foundations and numerous geological features (such as voids).
ORME STREET COMBINED SEWER – ATLANTA, GEORGIA. Project Manager This project was a 9,380 linear feet,
$45,750,000 relief sewer for an existing brick sewer that was built in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The ground
conditions and described methods for ground support and construction along the alignment of the 11 foot diameter
tunnel were evaluated. Our subsurface exploration along the proposed alignment described the physical
characteristics of the materials through which the tunnel was driven and provided specific rock and soil design
parameters, and established design conditions. With the variable conditions present, it was decided that a shield
would be required to maintain a symmetrical tunnel cross section and provide safety for workers.
CITY OF STONE MOUNTAIN MS4 DRY WEATHER SCREENING – STONE MOUNTAIN, DEKALB COUNTY, GEORGIA. Project
Manager. Mr. Beck inspected a percentage of city inventoried outfalls during dry weather and sampling and testing of
those found flowing. Information was then used to determine if illicit discharges.
