Water Resource Engineer

Professional Experience
Mr. Franz has participated in a number of projects including hydraulic designs
and hydrologic studies. This participation includes preparation of design
documents, technical analysis using state of the art software, direction of
technical staff, working wilh users and clients to develop selected alternatives,
preparation of bid documents, preparation of study recommendations, and
quality control assessments of completed projects. His pursuit of a Master's
degree in Civil Engineering demonstrates his aptitude in and passion for the
profession, particularly in hydrological and hydraulic analysis.

. Clover Basin Village Apartments, Longmant, CO - This project included
the design of the relocation of a portion of the Peck Irrigation ditch which
involved preparing a HEC-RAS model of the existing ditch to determine it's
existing capacity and evaluation of the relocated system to ensure that it did
not negatively impact the hydraulic and energy grade lines oflhe ditch

. Thompson Valle}' Public Improvements Package, Loveland, CO - As part of
this project, the City of Loveland master SWMM model was expanded from
8 square miles to include an additional 3 square mile basin that was
neglected in previous designs. The analysis involved the preparation of an
EXTRAN model to evaluate the flow conditions associated with
hydraulically connected detention at successive road embankments. The
final design provided energy dissipation at the downstream side of the
embankment to mitigate the historic al erosion problems.

. Boxelder Creek Floodplain Hydraulic Stud..rfor the Colorado State
University Environmental Learning Center, Fort Collins, CO - Assisted in
the development of a HEC-RAS model to evaluate the effects of this site
development on the Boxelder Creek Floodplain and to verify no rise in the
Base Flood Elevation established in a FEMA Flood Insurance Study.

. Repair Storm Damage -Jack's Valley Access Road, United States Air
Force Academy, Colorado Springs, CO - This project evaluated the erosive
potential of Monument Creek for a 5 mile stretch with a HEC-RAS model
and recommended erosion prevention measures at two locations. The
design included biological stream bank stability and aesthetic enhancement
features combined with hard armoring and terracing.

. Taft Hill Road Detention Pond, Fort Collins, CO ~ Extensive hydraulic and
hydrologic analysi~ of a portion of the Spring Creek drainageway in the
vicinity of Taft Hill Road. This project requires that the FEMA HEC2
hydraulic model and floodplain be updated through the CLOMR process
and that no negative impacts are realized due to the design of a regional
detention pond.

o Hewlett Packard EXTRAN, Fort Collins, CO - Assisted in the preparation
of an EXTRAN model for a system of hydraulically connected ponds. The
ponds serve as the regional detention for the tributary area. The purpose of
this study was to generate a synthetic rating curve for input into the more
simple SWMM model that the City of Fort Collins uses for masterplanning.
