Description

This project entailed the design, permitting, and construction contract administration associated with development of new cargo handling container yards. These container yards are integral to the expansion of Port Everglades' Southport Turning Notch. The project included design, permitting, and construction administration of a new container yard and ancillary buildings (Phase IX-B). A second component of this project included environmental assessment and demolition of the existing Foreign-Trade Zone warehouse building and conversion of the site into a cargo handling container yard facility (Phase IX-A). KEITH provided land-side civil engineering, planning, surveying, and subsurface utility engineering (SUE) services, including topographic survey, horizontal designation, vacuum excavation, stormwater management design, and permitting, water design for fire hydrant system design and permitting, and Written Statement of Probable Construction Cost for stormwater management and water system construction improvements.
