Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), Department of Public Works; U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Honolulu District
Saipan, CNMI

The purpose and objective of this project was to conduct studies to evaluate flooding hazards in the towns of Susupe and Chalan Kanoa, and provide the CNMI with designs for local drainage improvements based on the results of the evaluation. CPE conducted preliminary investigations and data development studies to describe the hydrologic and hydraulic assumptions, techniques, and methodologies required to evaluate improvements for local drainage in the two towns. Based on these investigations, CPE determined local drainage improvements following CNMI, DPW standards. In addition, CPE also prepared a technical hydrologic and hydraulics report.
