and chemical degradation of waste materials,
landfill bottom liner design and construction,
landfill closures, groundwater monitoring, various
waste management structures, and permitting
of waste management facilities. His assistance
has been sought for specific projects, task
groups, and committees because of his varied
experience and in-depth technical understanding
of landfill liner and leachate collection systems.
Projects he has managed include the development
