<br />Environment & Natural Resources, Raleigh, NC
<br />Participated, from 2009 — 2011, in a multiple person stakeholder group assembled by the
<br />NC DENR to help them rewrite the regulations governing permitting of storm water
<br />management discharges from solid waste composting facilities.
<br />Prior Infrastructure Development Experience, Various Positions
<br />• Organics Recycling Coordinator, NCDENR, 1997 -2001
<br />• Technical Advisor, NYC Citizens Advisory Committee for Beneficial Reuse of
<br />Sewage Sludge, 1991 -1994
<br />• Technical Advisor, Citizens Advisory Committees in Montgomery County, MD
<br />(1980 -1984) — Dickerson Interim Compost Facility, Rock Run Advanced
<br />Wastewater Treatment Plant, Shady Grove MSW Incinerator
<br />ORGANICS RECYCLING PROJECT EXPERIENCE
<br />Industrial Residuals Composting Facility, Royal Oak Farm LLC, Evington VA
<br />Work (2005- present) has included: site evaluation, composting process design (recipe
<br />development, sizing, layout) for 75,000 ton/year food scraps and industrial residuals
<br />composting facility in Central Virginia based on use of turned windrows, all waste
<br />management and storm water management permitting with VA DEQ, oversight of local
<br />engineering firm for site plan preparation, oversight of construction contractors,
<br />development of Operations Plan and Health- and - Safety Plan, conduct of operator
<br />training, odor control troubleshooting, and operations support.
<br />Ecomaine Solid Waste Authority, Organics Recycling Feasibility Study, Portland,
<br />Maine
<br />This 2012 -2013 project was a comprehensive evaluation of source - separated food scraps
<br />recycling alternatives at a solid waste authority anchored by a 550 ton/day Waste -to-
<br />Energy plant and a 35,000 ton/year dual - stream Materials Recovery Facility. The study
<br />evaluated: waste generation rates for food scraps, yard trimmings and vegetative debris,
<br />collection system alternatives, processing technology alternatives (anaerobic digestion
<br />and aerobic composting only), alternative siting evaluations, product market evaluations
<br />for biogas and compost, permitting and approval assessments, facility planning -level cost
<br />estimates, and preparation of a final report.
<br />Kenai Peninsula Borough, Organics Recycling Feasibility Study, Kenai, Alaska
<br />This 2012 -2013 project was a comprehensive evaluation of food scraps recycling
<br />alternatives at a largely rural borough (county) in Alaska. The study evaluated: waste
<br />generation rates for food scraps, yard trimmings and vegetative debris, expansion of the
<br />current solid waste convenience centers for drop -off of source - separated organic solid
<br />wastes, alternative aerobic composting (aerated static pile and in- vessel) and anaerobic
<br />digestion (dry fermentation) technologies, alternative sites for decentralized processing
<br />facilities, product markets for biogas and compost, permitting and approval requirements,
<br />projected capital and operating costs, and nine different alternative configurations (both
<br />centralized and decentralized) using a weighted -matrix criteria assessment.
