Civil Engineering and Land Surveying Leadership
Doug Schwind, P.E., P.L.S. - Owner and President
Doug is licensed as a Professional Engineer (P.E.) and Professional Land Surveyor (P.L.S.) in Washington (#28023), Montana (#9953), and Idaho (#6854). He has a B.S. in Civil Engineering from the University of Idaho and has completed continuing education in advanced foundation engineering, engineering hydrology, and earthquake engineering through the University of Idaho. He has also completed accredited PMBOK training as a Project Management Professional.
Doug has more than four decades of experience in civil engineering and land surveying. His civil engineering experience includes road design, storm drainage, gravity sewer systems, site grading, water mains and services, platting, and commercial site plans. His experience also includes project coordination, project planning, construction plan preparation, and construction surveying support.
Doug's combined engineering and surveying background helps NWDD coordinate projects from initial property and topographic surveys through civil design, permitting, construction staking, as-built survey information, and project completion.
Engineering Experience
NWDD's civil engineering experience includes hydrology, hydraulic engineering, storm drainage planning, site grading, road and access design, sewer and water utility coordination, erosion and sedimentation control plans, construction management support, value engineering, and cost estimating for civil engineering projects.
- Hydrology and hydraulic engineering for storm drainage planning
- Stormwater and drainage design for development projects
- Site grading, road, access, sewer, water, and utility design coordination
- Erosion and sedimentation control plans
- Construction management, value engineering, and cost estimating support
- Project planning, permitting, and agency coordination
Surveying Experience
NWDD uses survey field equipment and office mapping software to support property surveys, boundary surveys, topographic surveys, base mapping, design data surveys, construction staking, and as-built survey information.
Survey information is used to create base maps, develop contour mapping, support civil engineering design, prepare permit exhibits, and transfer approved design information from office to field for construction staking.
