<br />His treatment plant experience includes Title 22 advanced wastewater
<br />treatment facilities producing effluent suitable for live stream discharge
<br />and other reclamation uses; tertiary wastewater treatment facilities with
<br />biological nutrient removal; and diatomaceous earth filtration facilities.
<br />Other projects for which he has provided design services include water
<br />treatment membrane facilities, wellhead projects, and pump stations. In
<br />addition to providing civil/sanitary design expertise, he has extensive
<br />experience with various water and sewer hydraulic modeling programs.
<br />Mr. Ellis is a Registered Civil Engineer in California and Arizona.
<br />EXPERIENCE
<br />JBLM-McChord Field Housing Centralized Treatment Facility, US
<br />Army Corps of Engineers, Seattle, WA. Project Engineer. Project
<br />Engineer for a new 2,000 gpm wellhead treatment facility. The project
<br />consists of preliminary and final design services for three wells with high
<br />concentrations of manganese. Wellhead treatment evaluation included
<br />development of various filtration media alternatives, backwash waste
<br />recycling, and chemical dosing.
<br />Albert Robles Center for Water Recycling and Environmental
<br />Learning (Formerly known as GRIP), Water Replenishment District
<br />of Southern California, Pico Rivera, CA. Project Engineer. Project
<br />Engineer for a new 13,000 acre-feet per year of fully advanced treated
<br />recycled water. Treatment process includes influent facilities MF/UF

<br />well, and brine/waste disposal connection.
<br />Lakewood, Wells 28 and 29, City of Lakewood, Lakewood, CA. Project Manager. The City of Lakewood is
<br />constructing one new water well expected to produce about 3,000 gpm (Well 28) and possibly a second well
<br />(Well 29) to provide additional groundwater to supplement the City's water supply source. The City would pump
<br />water from the new well facilities to one of the existing reservoirs. Should treatment be needed for iron,
<br />manganese or arsenic removal from the new water source, the treatment facilities would likely be located at the
<br />reservoir site. The project consists of preparing a well siting study and providing recommendations for the new
<br />well sites. In addition, a drinking water source assessment was prepared and submitted to the health
<br />department for the new well. A well design report was prepared that incorporated the design plans and technical
<br />specifications.
<br />Sodium Hypochlorite System Reconstruction and Power Upgrades, South Orange County Wastewater
<br />Authority, Dana Point, CA. Project Manager. Project Manager for the preliminary design, final design plans
<br />and specifications as well as construction support services for this project at the Coastal Treatment Plant. The
<br />upgrade was designed to lower the chemical storage tank in relation to the feed point to avoid chemical
<br />siphoning through the metering pumps; provide true chemical containment with a new structure as defined in the
<br />Uniform Fire Code (UFC); replacement of the existing chemical feed pumps due to their age•, and provide a new
<br />control system for flow pacing of the sodium hypochlorite feed system.
<br />Caltrans Shallow Groundwater Study, Irvine Ranch Water District, Irvine, CA. Project Manager. Project
<br />Manager for a Technical Memorandum to IRW D documenting the results of a preliminary investigation of the
<br />potential options for beneficial use of Caltrans shallow groundwater along the 261 Toll Road to supplement the
<br />District's potable water supply.
