Edward M. Bradfuhrer PE Project Manager/Modeling/Linear Assessments Location Experience Niagara Falls, New York USA 17 years Qualifications/Accreditations – BS, Environmental Engineering, 2009 Memberships – Registered Professional Engineer, New York – New York water Environmental Association – American Society of Civil Engineers Relevant experience summary Ed is a project manager and project engineer who has extensive experience modeling complex hydraulic structures starting with his work in the Buffalo, NY and Niagara Falls sewer systems. These combined sewer communities contain complex flow control structures that are meant to limit water levels and protect property. This experience led Ed to start GHD’s computational fluid dynamics modeling group in North America. He is always interested in ways to improve project outcomes and has piloted modeling software like Optimatics and Infoworks ICM cloud modeling capabilities to optimize projects, reduce delivery time, and control costs. SSES Re-Evaluation SWMM Model Development Project Manager | Town of West Seneca Technical Advisor | | West Seneca, NY, USA Niagara County Sewer District No. 1 | Niagara County, NY, USA Led pilot testing of Optimatics for use in an optimization analysis of a sewer rehabilitation program Directed the development of a new sewer system meant to reduce system inflow and mitigate sanitary model for Niagara County Sewer District No. 1, which sewer overflows. The software used a genetic will be used to assist with locating flow restrictions in algorithm to game sewer lining, lateral lining, off-line the system and assist with accommodating future storage, and added system capacity to determine a development. Determined the location of flowmeter program that could improve outcomes at a lower cost installation, analyzed flowmeter data, trained junior than the current plan. The software helped identify a personnel in calibrating sewer models and geographic recommended program that can better reduce sewer information systems, and reviewed model calibration. overflows at half the cost of the current program. West Side Interceptor Evaluation Plant 5 Flowmetering Modeler and Technical Advisor | Project Manager | Town of West Seneca Town of Amherst | Amherst, NY, USA | West Seneca, NY, USA Led a team of engineers and modelers who performed Updated plans and specifications that were produced a study on the feasibility of installing a relief sewer for for regulatory review so that a new flowmeter and the West Side interceptor in Amherst, NY.

Construction of the project impacts, and non-monetary factors were evaluated for ultimately reduced sanitary sewer overflows in the each alternative. A pumping station and forcemain was system and improved data accuracy, which reduced determined to be the most feasible option for sewer recurring treatment costs paid to the City of Buffalo. relief and is anticipated to be implemented by the Town.
