56 Hammond Street

Portland, Maine

Objective

Divide a lot into two separate lots replacing a single family structure and detached garage with (2) new three-unit residential structures with accessory parking, stormwater controls and landscaping.

BCE Role

Provided civil and site engineering services including design, permitting and review, construction documents and administration. The stormwater design prepared for this site will use low impact development features such as the infiltration ponds to control stormwater flows and receive initial "first flush" stormwater runoff and infiltrate the excess flows created by the new impervious area. These infiltration ponds, as well as long-term and short-term erosion control measures will mitigate stormwater runoff to the maximum extent practicable.
