Attorney Client, on a long-term risk assessment project (nearing litigation with a regulatory agency and very attorney-heavy teams):
"Your ability to take comments from dozens of sources and mold them into a coherent report is truly extraordinary. Much of what we accomplished would not have been possible without the record you provided."
Neutral third party facilitator of the radionuclides re-sampling work group that developed a work plan at the Lowry Landfill Superfund site in Colorado.
Facilitated a multi-party meeting related to mine permitting, geotechnical safety, and acid generating potential aspects of planned remedial action at several large mine rock (waste) piles.
Conducted a telephone survey of dozens of US EPA Regional risk assessors to identify common practices and trends related to key risk assessment and risk management issues.
Met with construction workers at a construction site in California to help them understand the health risks associated with post-remediation levels of arsenic in soil.
Helped individual residents understand the health implications of the results of indoor air sampling in their homes.
Wrote and / or edited several newsletters, including Risk and Beyond, a client-targeted newsletter covering risk assessment, toxicology, remediation, and regulations, on behalf of a global environmental consulting firm; Notes, a quarterly newsletter covering investigation, risk assessment, remediation, and other topics related to environmental contamination; Mining NewsFlash, a periodic publication highlighting environmental and geotechnical issues and opportunities of interest to mines; The Lead and Arsenic Bulletin, a newsletter distributed to clients.
