Ambient Air Quality Assessments

. Indoor air quality surveys at commercial complexes, manufacturing

facilities, residential buildings, and institutional buildings. Conducted

several air quality assessments for the purpose of infection control and

odour investigations including review of building ventilation and

mechanical systems. The surveys have included initial Site

reconnaissance, air sampling, investigative measures, review of analytical

data, reporting, and presentation of results. Utilized National Institute

for Occupational Safety and Health sampling methods.

. Air quality assessments and monitoring of equipment at construction and

demolition sites. This includes real-time dust monitoring, measurement of

comfort parameters, use of weather stations, and communicating mitigation

techniques to contractors.

. Management of noise and dust control projects at construction Sites.

Involved quick response to public complaints, real-time and continuous

dust monitoring, noise monitoring, and set-up and maintenance of

meteorological and dust control equipment.

Certificate of Approval / Environmental Compliance Approval Projects

. Preparation of Certificate of Approval (Air & Noise) Applications and

feasibility studies including site visits and reporting for industrial,

institutional, and commercial facilities. The applications required

initial Site reconnaissance, data collection, review of analytical data,

modeling, emission estimating, and reporting.

. Where needed or applicable, utilized advanced modeling techniques, and

assisted clients with emission reducing strategies.

. Conducted measurements on-Site to support the preparation of Certificate

of Approval Applications.

Environmental Site Assessments

. Numerous Phase I Environmental Site Assessments including: reporting,

with maintenance staff to gather information, and evaluated the condition

of the building components. From this analysis, I was able to suggest

modifications and develop measures for energy savings; suggest

modifications or replacement of equipment; gain an understanding of how

each measure will interact with each other; and, determine the feasibility

of each measure. Determined payback periods for suggested modifications

and prepared applications for government assistance programs.
