Dr. Kasper holds a Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering and an M.S. in Civil Engineering from Caltech, Pasadena, CA and a B.S. in Civil Engineering from Loyola Marymount University, Los Angeles, CA. His areas of expertise include: Water Treatment Processes, Desalination, Membranes, Wastewater Reclamation, Island Water Supplies, Water Treatment Chemistry, and Distribution System Water Quality. PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE Selected Water Quality and Water Treatment Systems • Santa Ana. Owner's PFAS Representative providing expert consulting services related to PFAS contaminated groundwater and PFAS treatment systems at City wells. Trained City operators on treatment systems. • Dubai. UAE Responsible for water quality considerations in the Dubai Water Supply Master Plan and evaluation of corrosion control to mitigate problems resulting from blending multiple water sources in their distribution systems. • Muscat, Oman. Evaluated reverse osmosis desalination system and evaporation processes as expansion alternatives in Muscat, Oman. Key consideration is blending with the existing groundwater supply which is experiencing seawater intrusion. Evaluated compatibility of distribution systems with alternate sources of water. • Water Quality Specialist, Southern Nevada Water Authority, Las Vegas, NV. Served as Water Quality Specialist on multiple projects including ground water and surface water treatment. A 60 mgd Virgin -Muddy River System which would use pretreatment, first stage RO, interstage lime softening, second stage RO, brine recovery and brine evaporation. Responsible for developing process evaluation plan, process selection, and preliminary design. • San Gabriel Valley, CA. San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority — Technical Director for the preliminary design of a groundwater treatment system and preparation of the Environmental Impact Statement for the Baldwin Park Operating Unit, a 20-million gallon per day groundwater treatment system. Worked with the Water Quality A treatment system consisting of air stripping with off -gas carbon adsorption followed by liquid phase carbon adsorption was designed and costed. Project components consist of source water wells, piping and manifolds to deliver the water to the treatment plant, product water disinfection, and product water delivery to local potable water systems. • El Segundo, CA. Edward C. Little Water Recycling Facility, Phase V Design Build, West Basin Municipal Water District, El Segundo, CA. Serves as technical director for process engineering for the design and construction of the Phase V facilities consisting of ozone pretreatment of a secondary effluent, microfiltration, reverse osmosis, and AOP (UV and peroxide). The expansion increases Title 22 production used for irrigation and industrial cooling, two stage RO used as a high purity boiler feedwater and MF-RO-AOP used for direct injection into a seawater barrier without blending with a potable water supply.
