Aberdeen, MD and Newark, DE — Landmark Science & Engineering, a leading consulting firm in Delaware and Maryland that specializes in site/civil and water resources engineering, environmental sciences, and land surveying announced that Kevin Phillips has joined the Aberdeen, MD office as a senior designer. The firm was also honored to win a National Recognition Award at the American Council of Engineering Companies’ June 17 Engineering Excellence Awards ceremony after having won a top “Grand Conceptor” award at ACEC Delaware’s competition in February for an innovative channel restoration at the Avenue North mixed-use redevelopment.
Phillips brings 35 years of relevant civil engineering experience in the design of small- and large-scale commercial, industrial and residential projects. Phillips reports to John Gonzalez, P.E., CPSWQ, and will be responsible for the design of roads, grading, sediment and erosion control, storm drainage and water and sewer utilities for Landmark's Maryland-based projects. He has worked extensively on projects in Harford, Baltimore, and Cecil Counties and has taken projects through the land development approval and permitting processes in these jurisdictions. Phillips resides in Perryville, MD and attended Cecil College after earning a diploma at Perryville High School. Firm associate John Gonzalez said he “looks forward to working with Kevin after having the experience of working together in the past" and that "Kevin is a perfect fit for the office and has the experience and ability to step in on Day 1 to help us meet the demands of our client's projects and to grow the office.”
The ACEC National Recognition Award was received for design of the innovative channel restoration at the Avenue North mixed-use redevelopment of the AstraZeneca site in Fairfax. Landmark’s staff provided the civil engineering design, wetland delineation and environmental permitting, surveying, and landscape design to restore a severely eroded stormwater channel that had sustained a large loss of tree canopy. Structural and vegetative measures were designed for long-term stabilization. Sustainable site features included reuse of site rock, geotextile fabric, live willow stakes, and native landscaping to protect the steep slopes. An innovative, two-tiered gabion basket structure, J-hook scour pools, and a customized box culvert were designed to reduce stormwater inflow velocity, preserve the banks, and control outflow from the site.
