My business involves estimating and bidding materials for projects, and placement or removal of those materials. Use of fill dirt and base materials for building sites, and applying proper compacting techniques to ensure an adequate build site with minimal ground settling. Gravel for landscaping applications, Larger 4-6" aggregates for erosion repair and prevention on steep slopes. General excavation of footings for masonry walls (retaining, free standing, and pour in place concrete walls). I also have excavated for electrical and waterline trenches, always complying with local municipalities with proper locating of any and all underground services to ensure that there were no service interruptions and that these were excavated and placed to the proper specifications.

All aspects of residential construction from digging footings, pouring concrete, framing, siding, roofing, installing windows, flooring, remodels. I excavated for foundations, stem walls, water, electric, sewer, and estimated some of the excavating aspects for this company. ive bent and tied rebar, placed it in footings and columns, poured stem wall footings and pour in place concrete retaining walls, concrete slabs, (floors, sidewalks, driveways) and the building of forms for all of the mentioned above. I have painted interior and exteriors of buildings using proper preparation, spraying, and safety techniques as some of these jobs were done off of fairly high scaffolding and ladders. I am proficient and safe with any and all hand and power tools that are used in the "General Contracting" trades.

We performed a multitude of duties such as Forest Service maintenance contracts which involved cleaning culverts with a hitachi 135 excavator and making sure the ditch lines were devoid of debris, it also involved removing and replacing culverts and replacing roadside delineators. We also had to fall danger trees that were leaning toward the roads and daylighting the roads that trees had grown as a canopy over these roads. Decommissioning of forest service roads which involved removing large culverts and returning the roads to native ground, seeding and mulching as we went for erosion control, all while complying with strict WDFW, Forest Service, and OSHA Safety regulations. Other duties involved driving dump truck on sight only as I do not possess a CDL but have operated those as well. Can operate Excavators ranging from mini to 300 class, Caterpillar D4 and D6 dozer, tracked and rubber tire skid steers, vibratory roller, front end loader. In some areas we would have to divert streams around our work area by making small coffer dams and utilizing large 10" diesel powered water pumps and smaller gas powered trash pumps to dry out the we wereworking in, all while complying with and working alongside WDFW game biologist assisting them in the shocking and netting of any and all native fish and relocating them down stream below WDFW approved fish screens that we also placed. Performing daily maintanence on all equipment, this included repairing any and all break downs that we could perform on site which ranged from replacing broken hydraulic hose, hard lines, replacing brakes on company trucks, replacing grader cutting edge blades, changing engine oil,greasing machines daily, and anything that would break as we were generally in remote locations.

My duties consisted of operating Volvo L70 loader loading different grades of materials into Almix asphalt plant and doing routine maintenance on the plant when needed. This included replacing warn and damaged parts such as bearings, conveyor belts, pug mill rotors, veins inside the mixing drum, trunnions for which the drum rotated on, repairing or replacing any and all air actuators to insure proper functionality while the plant was up and running. Any malfunction in any of these systems components would have a huge ripple effect on the entire operation, from the trucks sitting idle, to the crew that was laying the asphalt, costing the company large amounts of money for any "down time". We were also required to clean and maintain all exhaust tubes and the bag house which wad essential for compliance with strict EPA regulations, all while following every OSHA safety standards and our own companies "lock out" procedures to assure a safe working environment for all employees. I also worked on the sewer mainline crew operating loader performing a multitude of duties such as loading trucks with over burden materials that the mainline digger excavated and placed into a live screen, and keeping those materials seperated such as screened bedding material for the mainline pipe layers. i also was responsible for moving the live screen when needed to keep up with the mainline digger, as well as keeping all of the shoring boxes readily available for placement as the project moved forward. other duties included stocking the job site every morning with enough pipe to last throughout the day and moving those materials forward as we progressed. These duties of my job was very fast paced and had to be well thought out way ahead of time as any time someone had to wait on me for any of these things it would slow the project down severly. I performed my duties with a safety-first attitude and all while maintaining production for the companies bottom line.
