Employer Summary
AMEC QA CWI/UT MT LII NY/NJ Port Authority Insp Twin Tower’s Rebuild, Sommerset NJ 06/12 to 9/12
Performed QA visual, UT and MT inspection of material previously accepted by on site QC staff on structural steel to AWS D1.1,
and AWS D1.5 codes. Performed welding observations during fabrication verifying compliance with approved WPS’s, verified pre
heat prior to commencing work on items requiring such, verified origin of materials being used and consumables used during
fabrication, performed pre coating prep visual inspections of parts to receive surface prep and or coatings, then final visual
following blasting, and or coating application and finally placing the Port Authority stamp on each piece/sub assembly and
generating and completing the shipping documents sent out with each item or piece. Reported directly to the NY/NJ Port Authority
any NCR issues, daily reports and final shipping documents for their review. AMEC Level III, supervisor Bruce Berger (858) 336

AMEC QA CWI/UT MT LII Texas Cross Trans Line, Tulsa OK, Dallas Ft. Worth Huntington TX,
02/12 to 06/12. Performed QA UT shearwave inspections of 100% of the welds inspected by the various
QC personnel at the 4 locations. Inspected metal power pole CJP welds identified to contain known defects from the fabrication
company that welded these connections initially. Identified numerous layers of defects in each of the approximately 500 pieces
examined, plotted and marked these defects for repair, then verified each defect had been removed and re welded to meet the
inspection criteria. Worked closely with QC and production welding supervisors and welders to try to minimize multiple repairs on
any one piece. Performed UT inspections constantly during the 10 hour days identifying literally thousands of class A, B and C
defects. Documentation and reporting so many indications per piece along with at times multiple repairs prior to acceptance was
very difficult and constant verification inspections were performed. AMEC LIII,supervisor Bruce Berger 858-***-****

NC Sturgeon (QISI) Urenco Hobbs NM 10/10 to 3/11
Performed CWI and ICC High Strength bolting and receipt inspections as required to complete the project. Work plan review,
procedure compliance observations, procedure and document review as required to support the craft. Performed process piping
inspections as requested by LES engineering in the 1001 copper and stainless Nitrogen system installation. Both projects

bridge and AISC type structural steel for the DOT’s for many states, often working under the direct scrutiny of Level III inspectors
for those agencies. Many hundreds of CPJ welds were inspected using D1.5, as like anyone using that code there were also
numerous repairs to be re worked and re inspected. Was able to provide the QA inspectors clean defect free work consistently.
Document control for QA manual revisions/audit’s, MTR’s, plan and acceptance criteria compliance and documentation, C.O.C’s
and MTR certification portfolios for various projects running simultaneously. LIII Caltrans Mark Wright 818-***-****

Ind. NDT LII,
INDT(Mobile,AL Augusta, GA Jacksonville, FL Richmond, VA Iron Mt, MI Savannah, GA) 1993 97
Performed NDT inspections as a level II Radiographer, UT Shearwave, Magnetic Particle, Liquid Penetrant, and Mechanical Level
visual inspector at industrial settings like Nuclear power plants, Pulp & Paper, refineries, petroleum and chemical plants, pipelines,
pressure vessels, storage vessels and related process piping, aero space, hydro electric and other power producing facilities both
on and off shore all over North America. Many standards including ASME, ANSI, Mil Standards, API 510, 653 and 570, API 1104
and many others dealing with too many different materials and shapes to list. Was a member of the team that initiated the API 570
program in Kingsport TN at Tennessee Eastman chemical plant. Extensive UT baseline as well as in process evaluations were
initiated using UT. Many various types of materials are used requiring an extensive box of calibration equipment. We did thickness,
erosion/corrosion, and component fatigue evaluations starting a whole new way of inspection at the facility. Was a part of the team
who developed the thinwall tube inspection by shearwave of new boiler tube welds. Our team, along with oversight RT teams
developed and repeatedly were able to verify results of a new procedure stil being used today. GE supervisor Doug Bland (423)
