HDR
Omaha, Nebraska
The dazzling $323 million center is
highlighted by a 10-story,
98-laboratory research tower in
addition to an eight-story, 108-bed
inpatient treatment center. The
project team overcame site constraints
to creatively design building
infrastructure that meets stringent
energy efficiency mandates while still
optimizing operational efficiency,
quality of care and patient experience.
Additional innovations include highefficiency boilers that will save nearly
$1 million in energy costs, a
centralized uninterruptible power
supply, and a distributed networkbased lighting control system that
adjusts illumination levels according
to occupancy, time scheduling and
daylight harvesting.

Minnesota 210 Design-Build
Flood Repair
Carlton, Minnesota
Barr Engineering Company
Minneapolis, Minnesota
A scenic section of Highway 210 is once again
being enjoyed by travelers after historic rainfall in
2012 caused major slope failures and extensive
roadway damage. The project team restored 74
slopes along a 3.5-mile stretch of the highway
while overcoming steep terrain accommodating
the area's unique geologic and groundwater
characteristics. Innovative measures and
vegetation were used to conceal many slope
repairs to reclaim the route's natural appearance.
Monitoring instrumentation invented specifically
for the project provides real-time erosion analysis
while advancing the practice of slope monitoring
in remote project locations.

Swan Lake Reservoir Expansion Project
North of Ketchikan, Alaska
McMillen Jacobs Associates
Boise, Idaho
Accessible only by boat, plane or helicopter, Swan Lake Reservoir's capacity was still increased
allowing for more storage from spillway flows. Located in proximity to the 25-megawatt Swan
Lake Hydroelectric facility-a major power provider for southeast Alaska-the reservoir capacity
level was raised from a normal full pool elevation of 330 feet to 345 feet. The project's design
included a 23-foot-wide vertical operating gate, a 30-foot-tall concrete pier and a 78-foot-long
flashboard gate system across the spillway. The modifications significantly lower energy costs and
increase energy security for power users, clients and the community.
