Ms. Provaznik graduated in the area of water resources with course work including <br />statistical hydrology, hydrologic modeling of small watersheds, hydraulic engineering, groundwah:r <br />engineering, and sediment transport. She also assist,~d in water n~sources research projects dealing <br />with hydrologic characteristics of small watersheds and issues concerning the Nebraska water usage <br />along the Platte River. Computer modeling experience includes: TR-20, TR-55, HEC-I, HEC-2, <br />HEC-6, HEC-RAS, CUHP-SWMM, SCSHYDRO, AGNPS, and HYDRAIN. The following <br />projects represent Ms. Provaznik's experience: <br /> <br />City of Aurora, Springhill Golf Course Drainage~:valuation, Aurora Colorado. Staff Engineer <br />for the drainage evaluation of the Springhill Golf Course. Evaluation included reviewing hydrologic <br />and hydraulic information provided by the city, refining and supplementing the calculations using <br />CUHP-SWMM, identifying problem areas, and developing potential solutions. Responsibility also <br />included final and interim report preparation. <br /> <br />Union Pacific Railroad. Staff Engineer for hydrologic and hydraulic analyses supporting the Union <br />Pacific Railroad's bridge renewal program. Performed site specific hydraulic analyses and bridge <br />sizing for railroad crossings of streams having drainage basins ranging in size from a few acres to <br />several hundred miles. Projects include site visits, surveys, agency contacts, hydrologic analysf:s <br />using HEC-I, regional regression equations, and various locally approved methodologies, hydraulic <br />evaluations using HEC-RAS or HEC-2, bridge sizing, report preparation, and permit acquisition <br />identification, assistance, and coordination. <br /> <br />United States Geological Survey, Flood Frequemy, Nebraska. Graduate research assistant for <br />the United States Geological Survey in the field of statistical hydrology, spedfically new flood <br />frequency methods. The work included assisting with the preparation ofthe Peak Flow Data Report, <br />assisting with the assembly of watershed characteristics, assisting in the calculations of Bulletin l7B <br />quantiles for Nebraska gages, research of modified and new flood frequency methods, and <br />calculations of quantiles using a combination of L-moments and Region of Influence methodologies. <br />The quantile calculations included statistical analysis using SAS, a.nd modification and development <br />of C++ and FORTRAN programs. <br /> <br />Papio-Missouri River Natural Resources District, Eagle Run Creek, Omaha Nebraska. <br />Conducted an independent physical modeling study 0 f an energy dissipation stfUl;ture for the Papio.. <br />Missouri River Natural Resources District and Thompson, Dreesen, and Dorner. <br /> <br />1999 Flood DocumentaNon Report <br />HDR Engineering, Inc <br /> <br />/oH:olo" <br />6Y.\~"',) <br />'iff ~"t <br />\'/"(""/~' <br />\"<'>",:-'-0'/" <br />~-1;fi';Y <br />
