Employment
Public Service Enterprise Group (Newark, New Jersey)
-
Principal Environmental Analyst (1989-2009) – Managed a hazardous waste site
i nvestigation in Hamil ton Township in Mercer County where organic solvents were
found in the groundwater. The sources of the contamination were identified and
removed before any contamination could reach drinking water supplies. Schedule
and the budget were managed using tools such as SAP and Excel.
Also managed numerous wetland permitting efforts for PSE&G. The most
s ignificant ones were the acquisition of five blanket wetland permits from the State
of New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection ((NJDEP). These permits
enabled PSE&G to install and repair electric t ransmission, electric distribution, gas
d istribution and gas t ransmission facilities within regulated freshwater wetlands
and wetland buffers in New Jersey without having to apply for a permit each t ime
an activity occurred in a regulated wetland. These creative permits saved PSE&G
s ignificant costs and streamlined the permit ting process by 6 to twelve months.
W rote a clean fill permit application for the on-site disposal of inert, non-hazardous
building material associated with the demolition of a former power plant in Jersey
C ity, New Jersey. By obtaining this clean fill permit PSE&G was able to save an
estimated $500,000 in landfill disposal costs.
