February 2011 – August 2012

Hodges, Harbin, Newberry, & Tribble, Inc., Macon, Georgia

Environmental Scientist / GIS Development / Analyst

Singlehandedly initiated, developed, and implemented the use of interactive Geographic Information

Systems (GIS) mapping systems into industrial waste management, disaster r elief, and mining applications.

This development includes the pre-emptive review of potential site development, site monitoring and

maintenance, and future predictors of land development and design

W orked closely with Federal, State, and local governments in the aftermath of the 2011 tornados in

Tuscaloosa, AL and Joplin, MO to permit temporary storage sites and emergency landfill sites to except

storm debris. Also looked at landfills waste streams near disaster center for determ ining expectance of

storm debris

Consulted with clients to develop tailored interactive GIS maps to improve daily monitoring, and operations

for landfills and surface mines and other facilities and land development with permits, pictures, plans, and

sampling data embedded in attributes and databases

Established quality control standards and procedures; provides training and mentorship to other engineers

and environmental scientists to improve standardization of GIS implementation and ensure best practices,

including conversion of AutoCAD designs into GIS shapefile or geodatabase

Interpret and effectively communicate environmental standards, rules, and regulations pertaining to

organizational processes, facilities management, and equipment maintenance to ensure client compliance

with local, state, and federal agencies, including review of relevant draft permits, NPRMs (Notice of

Proposed Rule Making), and other proposed permitting in order to anticipate changes in industry practice

and adapt and initiate new protocols to ensure clien t compliance with updated regulations

Maintained and tracked permit compliance for landfills and surface mines in 9 states, including NC, SC, GA,

FL, AL, MS, VA, MO, TX. Additional familiarity with regulatory standards in Guam, C ayman Islands, and

Puerto Rico

Reviewed groundwater, surface water, methane, leachate, air, petroleum storage, hazardous waste storage

and generation, and NPDES monitoring/compliance data for submission of results to loca l, state, and

federal agencies

Prepared Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SP3), Environmental Monitoring Plans, and Spill

Prevention, Control Countermeasures Plans (SPCC), EPCRA/Tier II reports, RCRA Reports, and facility

due diligence.

Used GIS to develop Fatal Flaw maps to determine appropriate areas for site development based on siting

restrictions from local ordinances, municipal zoning restrictions, and state an d Federal rules and regulations
