The beginning of the semester was dedicated to completing the design for the Marcala Water Treatment Plant. My contribution to the completion of the design was updating the sedimentation tank drawing, to included the presence of two additional sedimentation tanks. I wrote a program to determine size of orifices needed to compensate for the difference in flow in the effluent launders. The office design program uses the head loss and size of the orifice diameter as constraints. The final write up is under review as will eventually be sent to Fred Stottlemyer. Along with the rest of the unit process team I worked on wiking the past report of the Marcala Water Treatment Plant.

For the remainder of the semester I have worked closely with the Hydraulic Design Team and Integration to write the master program. I worked in collaboration with my unit process teammates on the skeletons for the unit process portion of the master code. I then worked on mainly hydraulic design programs, including the grit chamber and channel function code found on the registrar. I am currently working with the unit processes team on the flocculation code for the master program.
