As a Water/Wastewater Engineer, I have taken part in evaluating community potable water and sewer systems in preparation for rehabilitation, repair, or replacement. I have designed a replacement for a section of water main outside a water treatment plant with significant static and dynamic pressures, a section of water main in a downtown area that crosses.

In my time at AECOM, I've worked on a variety of projects both in and out of the office. In the field, I've performed site investigation activities at old rail yards, industrial sites, and residential areas near such sites. I've collected groundwater, soil, and vapor samples and have used the results to help make cleanup decisions. Notably, I helped.

Working for the water plant, I perform the testing and maintenance of the chilled water system for campus. This involves laboratory testing for concentrations of chemicals which protect the system by inhibiting rust or preventing bacterial growth. Maintaining this system protects the multi-million dollar investment the University has made to supply campus.

Through the DNR's P2 (Pollution Prevention) program, I was assigned to the 3M plant in Knoxville, IA to reduce the amount of solid waste being sent to landfill. As a way to accomplish this, I was to look at the processes used in manufacturing their products and find ways to reduce the waste on the floor. 3M is already an efficient company, so little could.
