WGI, through a continuing contract with the City of Fort Pierce, was awarded a contract to provide design and construction engineering inspection for three major stormwater projects totaling $3.4M. As a result of the flooding caused by Tropical Storm Fay, funding for these projects was made available to the City from grants issued by the US Department of Agriculture – Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) to correct critical segments of the stormwater conveyance system in the City.

WGI was responsible for survey, design and construction observation services for the restoration of the City’s canal systems. Included in the project was the gabion wall restoration of the Virginia Avenue Outfall Canal, a 2,000-foot long canal serving a large watershed within the City, rip-rap channel repairs to the Mayflower Canal, and culvert crossing replacements under roadways in Moore’s Creek.
