• Muscat, Oman. Evaluated reverse osmosis desalination system and evaporation processes as expansion alternatives in <br />Muscat, Oman. Key consideration is blending with the existing groundwater supply which is experiencing seawater <br />intrusion. Evaluated compatibility of distribution systems with alternate sources of water. <br />Water Quality Specialist, Southern Nevada Water Authority, Las Vegas, NV. Served as Water Quality Specialist on multiple <br />projects including ground water and surface water treatment. A 60 mgd Virgin -Muddy River System which would use <br />pretreatment, first stage RO, interstage lime softening, second stage RO, brine recovery and brine evaporation. <br />Responsible for developing process evaluation plan, process selection, and preliminary design. <br />• San Gabriel Valley, CA. San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority — Technical Director for the preliminary design of a <br />groundwater treatment system and preparation of the Environmental Impact Statement for the Baldwin Park Operating <br />Unit, a 20-million gallon per day groundwater treatment system. Worked with the Water Quality A treatment system <br />consisting of air stripping with off -gas carbon adsorption followed by liquid phase carbon adsorption was designed and <br />costed. Project components consist of source water wells, piping and manifolds to deliver the water to the treatment <br />plant, product water disinfection, and product water delivery to. local potable water systems. <br />• El Segundo, CA. Edward C. Little Water Recycling Facility, Phase V Design Build, West Basin Municipal Water District, El <br />Segundo, CA. Serves as technical director for process engineering for the design and construction of the Phase V facilities <br />consisting of ozone pretreatment of a secondary effluent, microfiltration, reverse osmosis, and AOP (UV and peroxide). <br />The expansion increases Title 22 production used for irrigation and industrial cooling, two stage RO used as a high purity <br />boiler feedwater and MF-RO-AOP used for direct injection into a seawater barrier without blending with a potable water <br />supply. <br />• City of Pacific Grove, CA. Prepared preliminary design and developed Design -Build procurement package for a 250,000 <br />MBR wastewater reclamation system producing recycled water for golf course irrigation. Providing design review - <br />approval and construction oversight for the City. <br />• Carson Regional Water Recycling Facility Master Plan, Carson CA. Dr. Kasper served as a technical director for this <br />WBMWD's regional recycling facility. Product water qualities evaluated include barrier injection water, single stage RO <br />boiler feed, two stage RO boiler feed and industrial cooling water. WBMWD design criteria were applied to the <br />equipment selection and process layout. The expansion processes were integrated with the existing process units and <br />configured to minimize footprint requirements given the limited site area. <br />Resort Islands <br />• DIVI Development Corporation, The Virgin Islands. Evaluated water resources, including wastewater reuse, aquaculture <br />systems, and seawater reverse osmosis desalination to meet the water need of two large hotel developments located on <br />the Virgin Island. Wastewater reclamation is more cost-effective than seawater desalination for irrigation of landscape <br />and golf courses. <br />Paradise Island, Bahamas. Designed, supervised installation and startup of 0.5 MGD seawater reverse osmosis <br />desalination system serving over 2,000 hotel rooms. High efficiency pumping/energy recovery incorporated to reduce <br />power consumption. Beach seawater well supply and brine outfall were included in the project. <br />Saipan. Served as technical director for the conceptual and preliminary design for a 15,000 CMD water supply system <br />using seawater reverse osmosis for the Lao Lao Bay Resort Development in Saipan. Also addressed wastewater facilities at <br />this a major development on the east side of Saipan. Defined potential environmental impacts. <br />• New Providence Development Corporation, Nassau, Bahamas. Project Manager for the evaluation of salt water intrusion <br />and over pumping of a groundwater infiltration system covering twenty-four hundred square acres. Multiple test wells <br />were installed for profiling the salinity of the groundwater. Over extraction of the field had resulted in increasing chloride <br />levels. Prepared preliminary design for treatment systems and partial RO to meet TDS requirements. <br />• Polymetrics Inc., New Providence Island, Bahamas. Prepared water balances and developed irrigation requirements for <br />the South Beach Resort under contract to Polymetrics, a manufacturer of seawater reverse osmosis systems. <br />
