Ms. Provaznik graduated in the area of water resources with course work including <br />statistical hydrology, hydrologic modeling of small watersheds, hydrauli<: engineering, groundwalf,r <br />engineering, and sediment transport. She also assisted in water f1~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-l, HEC-2, <br />HEC-6, HEC-RAS, CUHP-SWMM, SCSHYDRO, AGNPS, and HYDRAlN. The following <br />projects represent Ms. Provaznik' s experience: <br /> <br />Central Nebraska Public Power and Irrigati.on District, Depl1etion Mitigation Study. Project <br />Engineer for analyzing the mitigation opportunities along the CNPPID system. The project includes <br />locating potential storage sites for pump storage rest~rvoirs, concf~ptuallevel design for gravity fi II <br />and pump storage reservoirs, and groundwater mitigation options. Information :lTom the study will <br />be used for Phase II preliminary design for the most j~~asible options identified. <br /> <br />Rio Grande Decision Support System. Project Manager Assistant. The position is to repol1: <br />directly to the project manager of the Rio Grande De,cision Support System in the State Engineer's <br />Office. Tasks vary as the project progresses. The main current task involves creating a Visual Basic <br />6.0 program to compare well information from two separate databases for potential matches using <br />various queries, parameters, and levels of confidence. <br /> <br />Woodward Clyde Federal Services, Inc., Platte River EIS Studies. Project Engineer for the <br />development ofIand use impacts associated with thf: acquisition of habitat lands in the Platte River <br />basin. As part of the recently completed fiscal impact analysis, this involved conducting interviews <br />with resource agencies and non-profit agencies who currently manage habitat in the project area. As <br />part of these interviews, "before" and "after" estimates of land uses management costs, and <br />restoration costs of habitat lands were developed. <br /> <br />Fin-Feather Lake Embankment Stabilization Analysis. Staff engineer fiJr hydrologic and <br />hydraulic analysis of the Fin-Feather Lake Dam in Bryan, Texas. The dam has b<~en identified to be <br />in non-compliance with current dam safety criteria with respect to the hydraulic capacity of thf: <br />structure. The analysis included updating previous P~vlF determinations, IUnning HEC-l to simulate <br />the surface runoff response and develop elevation-discharge relationships. <br /> <br />Harlan Street Bridge, Westminster Colorado. Staff Engineer for hydrologic and hydraulic of <br />various potential crossings of Harlan Street owr Big Dry Creek. Project completed to conceptual <br />design and is proceeding to preliminary design. <br /> <br />1999 Ffood Documentation F-?eport <br />HDR Engin'gering, Ine <br /> <br />..--or%" <br />~y~, <br />~l~'?;\ <br />.".~~) <br />\~~,,,,-1&/..' <br />''t_!~f~v <br />
