says that it's important to think about projects in a fundamentally
different way. There's a need to use "interdependency planning"
methods that have demonstrated considerable success in Europe.
The approach factors in the numerous stakeholders and assets supporting regional functions in a project and looks for ways to deliver
the maximum benefit to various groups. This includes identifying
innovative ways to finance and build projects by rethinking how
they are designed and used. "It's about creating stakeholder buy-in

A good example of this approach is the Bay Park Sewage
Treatment Plant that serves about 1 million residents of Nassau County in Long Island. After the hurricane, the facility was
submerged in more than 8 feet of water and knocked out of
operation. Arcadis worked closely with public authorities and the
community to design and build a new 60-acre site that encompassed a $1 billion flood defense system. Engineers constructed a
2-mile levy system that incorporates concrete and earthen walls, an
upgraded electrical system and floodgates to ensure that the facility
can withstand a future storm. The project, completed in August
2016, also includes a bike path and a park where families and
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is building two sections of a sea wall and rebuilding portions
of the Atlantic City, N.J., boardwalk along the Absecon Inlet. The project is designed to reduce
damage from coastal storms.
