The project includes in-depth analysis of all discarded materials from diverse <br /> building types (administration, classroom, dining, sport, and residential).

Peter is responsible <br /> for strategic oversight and management of all project activities. <br /> Materials Recovery Facility Development, Emerald Coast Utilities Authority, (ECUA), Pensacola, FL <br /> Peter worked closely with ECUA throughout development of its state-of-the-art MRF. Initially, he <br /> assessed various recycling and processing scenarios including different types of processing options <br /> and regionalization opportunities. Once ECUA decided to develop its own MRF, his work focused on <br /> two partnerships with the private sector—one to provide the processing system and one to operate <br /> the MRF.This involved developing procurement documents, analyzing and comparing proposals, <br /> participating in team meetings, shortlisting vendors, and negotiating contracts. For the equipment <br /> procurement, Peter reviewed MRF design including building specifications and processing system <br /> design and drafted the performance statement. For the operator procurement, he helped negotiate <br /> the operating fees and revenue sharing terms, drafted the contract, and reviewed the operating <br /> plan. Peter was Project Manager for all recyclables composition studies conducted for ECUA. <br /> Recyclables Composition Study and Processing Contract Assistance, Lee County, FL <br /> Peter has managed a project assisting Lee County with renegotiating the county's contract with its <br /> recyclables processing contractor at the county-owned MRF.

Peter is currently providing strategic and technical assistance to in reviewing <br /> documents and letters from the processor and drafting language for amendments to the contract. <br /> i= Recycled Materials Collection and Processing Analysis, Major Theme Park, Florida <br /> Peter coordinated this analysis of four recycling programs alternatives, including conversion to <br /> single stream, addition of glass, and alternative processing and marketing strategies. Work included <br /> estimating recovery rates, estimating capital and operating costs, and identifying the advantages, <br /> disadvantages, and strategic implications for each alternative. The results allowed the client to <br /> identify opportunities to improve efficiency, reduce costs, increase diversion, and maintain a <br /> financially sustainable recycling program. <br /> Materials Recovery Facility Analysis, Boulder County, CO <br /> Peter coordinated this detailed operational and financial evaluation of the Boulder County Recycling <br /> Center. A two-day on-site audit took a comprehensive look at facility layout, process flow, <br /> equipment configuration, sorting procedures, labor requirements, and commodity production. <br /> Supplemented with analysis of historical records, KCI determined key performance metrics for the <br /> MRF compared to industry standards and developed practical recommendations for improving <br /> current operations. <br /> Prior Employment History <br /> • TERRA, Principal Consultant <br /> • E&A Environmental Consultants, Consultant <br /> kessler consulting inc. <br /> Proposals 2018\Orange Co Proposal-final 27 innovative waste solutions <br />
