TFMoran Stormwater Department: Balancing Infrastructure and Nature in Nashua, NH

The TFMoran Stormwater Team is working with R.S. Audley of Bow, NH on the NHDOT F.E. Everett Turnpike widening project that includes replacing two 70-year-old bridges over Bowers Pond. Bower’s Pond is the main source of Nashua’s water supply. The TFM team prepared the stream diversion, dewatering, erosion control, and stormwater pollution prevention plans (SWPPP) for the project.

In addition to preparing the environmental plans for the project, TFM’s EPA Certified personnel are providing turbidity monitoring when R.S. Audley is performing in-water work to confirm the project is compliant with the NH Surface Water Quality Standards.

Preparatory work commenced this spring on a new six-lane bridge that will cross Bowers Brook and Pond, a reservoir located beneath the F.E. Everett Turnpike, connecting Nashua and Merrimack between Exits 8 and 10. This work includes placing fill material in the pond where the new bridge approaches are and monitoring the material for settlement prior to constructing the new bridges.

While ensuring smooth traffic flow during this vital highway widening project from Nashua to Bedford has been a primary focus, equally important is safeguarding the drinking water supply and protecting the wildlife in the surrounding undeveloped woods.

Check out Union Leader’s full article to learn about the project’s full scope and how the project teams are balancing between necessary construction and the importance of preserving nature.

Celebrating Progress at Market & Main Lifestyle Center

The Market & Main Lifestyle Center is transforming the landscape of Bedford, NH, and as the project approaches its final stages, excitement is building. Sullivan Construction recently invited us to join in the celebration as the last beam was lowered into place, marking a significant milestone in this ambitious development.

Ken Beers, the Superintendent at Sullivan Construction, informed the audience about recent additions to a 725 lb. beam: an American flag and a Fir tree. He explained that the Fir tree, rooted in ancient Nordic tradition, symbolizes an accident-free construction site and brings life to a project upon completion. Beers emphasized the importance of safety, proudly noting that their project received a 100% score in last week’s safety inspection.
