Mecca S. Nestinuen PE, CFM Lead Project Manager/Water Resources Engineer Ms. Nest ingen is a professional engineer with experience in hydrology, hydraulics, and the management of stormwater. Rebecca has worked on hydrologic and hydraulic design of storm sewer systems, culverts and bridges, has completed Surface Water Management Plans (SWMPs) and drainage/water quality studies, and has designed stormwater management best management practices (BMPs). Rebecca's Master of Science work focused on assessing the infiltration characteristics of rain gardens in various settings and developing infiltration measurement techniques. Rebecca was also a contributor to the Minnesota BMPs assessment manual. EXPERIENCE Comprehensive Surface Water Management Plan — Roseville, Minn. Rebecca served as the lead water resources engineer on this project that required a series of meetings with the City's Public Works, Environmental and Transportation Commission (the Roseville commission charged with surface water management) to develop major themes for the plan, developing draft goals and policies and finalizing the plan. A draft plan was also reviewed with the City's Parks and Recreation Commission and at a Public Open House to gather input on issues throughout the City. Surface Water Management Plans — Various Minnesota Communities Rebecca developed goals and policies, updated development standards, created plan figures, revised Capital Improvement Plans and authored plan narratives as the project engineer on multiple local surface water management plans, including the following: Burnsville • Oakdale White Bear Lake Long Lake • Roseville (in progress) Maplewood • Vadnais Heights XP-SWMM Hydraulic Studies — City of Crystal, Minn. Hydraulic engineer for a detailed hydrologic and hydraulic analysis of an existing storm sewer system for a State Aid reconstruction projects using XPSWMM. Rebecca collected as-builts and other data necessary for the analysis. She provided technical reports to the City that discussed results of the analysis, XPSWMM Hydraulic Studies have been completed for the street reconstruction Phases 9-15. XP-SWMM Hydraulic Studies — City of Burnsville, Minn. Rebecca provided technical oversight, consultation, and QA/QC of the XPSWMM analysis completed of an existing storm sewer system for State Aid reconstruction projects. Sweeney Lake Total Maximum Daily Loads Study — City of Golden Valley, Minn. Project engineer on the Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) study for Sweeney Lake which involves analyzing in -lake water quality data and the lake water quality response to nutrient load scenarios using BATHTUB model. Lake Titlow Improvements — Gaylord, Minn. Lead engineer and modeler on the cooperative project with the City, the Lake Titlow Improvement Association, and Minnesota State University (MSU) in Mankato. Rebecca was responsible for collecting and analyzing G IS data that will support creation of a SWAT model. The SWAT model was calibrated to monitoring data collected by MSU and was used to evaluate possible improvements in the watershed.
