He has <br />been a consultant in the field of environmental and water /wastewater <br />engineering for over 26 years. Ile specializes in managing large multi- <br />disciplinary programs for private and public sector clients. His experience <br />in the field of water resources is expansive and diverse, such as developing <br />groundwater management models for aquifers that were under strain <br />because of excessive use based on water rights, or the economics of using <br />desalination as a water supply tool. <br />Project specific Experience <br />Project Manager, Turnkey Removal Action, Santa Ana, CA: The site <br />was involved in litigation; therefore, National Contingency Plan (NCP) <br />requirements were followed to prepare for and execute the Removal <br />Action. This included the preparation and regulatory approval of an <br />EE /CA prior to implementation. The Removal Action involved the <br />excavation, removal, and disposal of heavily contaminated soil from the <br />site. The Removal Action became necessary because the concentrations of <br />halogenated solvents in a portion of the site were posing an imminent <br />threat to groundwater. <br />Project Manager, Expedited Remedial Action Plan, Vernon, CA: <br />Managed the first Expedited Remedial Action Plan prepared under the <br />California SB -923 program. The site is the first to be selected under this <br />program. <br />Project Manager, Union Station Gateway Project, Los Angeles, CA, <br />Union Station: Participated in the preparation and implementation of an <br />EE /CA for a Removal Action for the Union Station Gateway Project. <br />The action became necessary when a former town gas site was <br />encountered during construction activities. The encountered soil was <br />heavily contaminants with PAHs, VOCs, and other contaminants <br />associated with town gas sites. Through the timely implementation of the <br />removal action plan, construction activities went ahead on schedule. <br />Project Manager, Feasibility Study for Federal Superfimd Site, <br />Various Cities in Southern California, CA: Extensive treatability <br />studies for waste, soil, groundwater, and NAPL. The feasibility of <br />excavating soil impacted with high concentrations of VOCs was also <br />evaluated for the site. <br />Project Manager, Large Remediation Project, Ontario, CA, <br />Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC): Successfully <br />piloted the project through the regulatory process and obtained approval <br />of the Feasibility Study (FS), Remedial Action Plan (RAP), and Remedial <br />Design. The RAP, as approved by the DTSC, recommended soil vapor <br />extraction as the remedy for impacted soil. After a detailed pilot test to <br />obtain physical and operating parameters for the site, a full-scale soil <br />25F -72 <br />
