A comprehensive hydraulic model, calibrated using more than 160,000 operational data points, revealed a more targeted path forward that maximized existing infrastructure and addressed critical system constraints. The analysis reduced proposed capital spending by approximately $70 million while maintaining project goals and improving flood resilience.
