I retired from the NYSDEC on June 29, 2016. I currently work for Mohawk Valley Materials (MVM) located in Marcy, New York. We bid on land clearing projects all over the country. I also help in the preparation of scheduling, work plans, shop drawings, and represent MVM at MVEIE and RONY. This company specializes in land clearing debris and soon will be opening a metal fabrication shop in Rome, New York. I also work for Homeland Security the division of Disaster Relief. I will only be called on during emergencies.

Inspections of landfills, transfer stations, recycling facilities, waste tire facilities, land spreading of sludges, asbestos, and hazardous wastes. Certified RCRA inspector with 22 years of experience in the RCRA (Resource Conservation and Recovery Act) program. I have completed over 300 industrial inspections.

I taught Reinforced Concrete Design, Structural Steel and Strength of Materials. I taught them 2 to 3 times each. I enjoyed the students. MVCC still had my old professors.

I worked for the NYSDEC in the Hooker Litigation Group. My expenses and my time was paid for by the Hooker Chemical Company. I was the resident engineer for the NYSDEC at Love Canal and Hyde Park. All my efforts were in the remediation of the sites. The installation of HDPE plastic liners, pump stations, slurry walls, etc. I had to chair public meetings representing the NYSDEC, which took many years off my life. I also had to give presentations to the Technical Review Community that was set up evaluating when the area could allow people to live in the area again. In 1985, I moved to Albany and had to process all change orders and make Audit Control happy for all expenditures at the site. In Central Office I put together the bidding documents for the cleaning or the storm and sanitary sewers in the Declaration Area of Love Canal. For my reward, I was sent back to Love Canal for the spring, summer and fall of 1985 to finish the remediation project at the Canal. I was abused. Such is life.
