SLADE & ASSOCIATES LLC <br />Hydrogeology <br />Anthony Hicke has over 21 years of experience serving as lead geologist, project <br />manager, and/or participated in a number of basin -wide groundwater studies in <br />which hydrogeologic conceptual models of basins were developed. Anthony has <br />provided technical advisory work and project management during construction, <br />rehabilitation, and extraction/injection testing of numerous production water <br />wells and monitoring wells for municipal and agricultural clients. He directs <br />preparation of hydrogeological studies and technical documents reports as well <br />as the preparation of technical documents intended to support the creation of <br />Environmental Impact Reports (EIRs), and provides support for those projects <br />throughout the approval process, including providing presentations to Planning <br />Commissions and Boards of Supervisors summarizing and interpreting <br />hydrogeologic data and results. Anthony is also an active participant with <br />various industry groups, and provides presentations on various subjects related <br />to his expertise and current practice. Since Richard Slade's appointment as the <br />Upper Los Angeles River Area Watermaster in December 2008, Anthony has <br />performed the duties of the Assistant ULARA Watermaster. <br />Experience <br />La Brea Subarea - Los Angeles, CA: Project Manager and Principal <br />Hydrogeologist for well siting and development in the La Brea Subarea of <br />the Central Groundwater Basin. Initially, RCS evaluated the groundwater <br />production potential of six candidate well sites within in the La Brea Subarea. <br />Following the well siting work, RCS designed and provided hydrogeologic <br />services and field oversight for a new nested monitoring well was constructed <br />as part of the evaluation work. In 2021 RCS provided field services and well <br />design services for the first new municipal supply well constructed in the La <br />Brea Subarea since the 1970s (La Cienega Well No. 1). Construction of the well <br />was completed in late 2020. Testing showed that the well met the intended water <br />production and water quality goals, with a recommended operational pumping <br />rate of 500 GPM. Currently, RCS is providing hydrogeologic well design and <br />field services associated with the construction of a triple -nested monitoring wells <br />at the City's Sand Pit site property, with an estimated completion of May 2022. <br />Data collected from the monitoring well will be used determine the feasibility of <br />construction a new municipal -supply water well at the site. <br />High Desert Water Bank (HDWB), Antelope Valley -East Kern Water <br />Agency (AVEK) - Western Antelope Valley, CA: Project Manager for <br />owner's advisor services.
