Hydrogeologist
Current-management and supervision of hydrogeological site investigations and groundwater modeling in support of mine permitting; -experience in site investigations includes drilling supervision/well installation in overburden and bedrock, design and analysis of hydraulic testing (slug tests, packer tests and pumping tests) and groundwater monitoring; -working knowledge of low-flow sampling (including the use of dedicated pumps) according to “Water and Air Baseline Monitoring Guidance Document for Mine Proponents and Operators – June 2016”, “CCME Protocol Manual for water sampling in Canada – 2011” and “2013 B.C. Field Sampling Manual – Part E Water and Wastewater sampling”; -groundwater modeling experience includes the development of 3D groundwater flow and solute transport models (using Modflow) to assess dewatering requirements for open pits and underground mines as well as seepage and contaminant transport from mine waste facilities.
