<br />geological, geotechnical and water
<br />resources engineering experience to
<br />assess critical design and construction
<br />considerations. Additionally, he is
<br />experienced in the complexities
<br />associated with geotechnical
<br />investigations for transmission
<br />foundation design and direct embed
<br />backfilt testing procedures.
