To whom it may concern,
My Name is Scott R. Treat and have recently completed my bachelor's degree in Environmental Science
with a special interest in Watershed Systems. I am searching for a position that will utilize my education
and enthusiasm in natural/environmental resources.
My education and passionate work ethic have given me many skills and an understanding when
analyzing on site data. I have extensive ArcGIS data collection and application experience. Along with
laboratory experience in biology, chemistry, and geology I have working experience utilizing
environmental field labs to assess water/soil chemistry and water/soil integrity indoors and in the field. In
the lab I have researched and observed a multitude of specimens and samples through the use of
bioassays and specialized lab equipment. In the classroom I have had formal education regarding state
and federal laws, rules, and regulations in regard to natural resources.
I have enclosed reference contact information, and resume, which provides additional details about my
background.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Scott R. Treat
