Geosyntec Consultants announced the promotion of a new group of practitioners to senior roles in the United States and Canada.
Practitioners Promoted to Senior Roles at Geosyntec are:
– Scott Compston , an environmental scientist whose practice focuses on the remediation of contaminated sediments.
He has conducted site investigations at complex upland and sediment sites throughout the country regulated under a variety of state and federal regulatory programs.
Scott has a lead role in planning and implementation for a multi-year remedial investigation and feasibility study at the Berry’s Creek Study Area mega-site in New Jersey.
As part of the Berry’s Creek team, he led the development of novel equipment and methods used to sample sediment and water in extremely challenging environments.
– Grant Scholes , P.Eng., an environmental engineer whose practice focuses on the remediation of chlorinated solvents.
He has designed zero valent iron permeable reactive barriers, managed and monitored the operations of several multi-phase extraction systems, and designed and self-built a groundwater bioremediation recirculation system for treatment of trichloroethylene (TCE) in fractured bedrock.
Grant also performs hydraulic testing and groundwater sampling at a number of sites.
He is among the engineers leading the development Self-sustaining Treatment for Active Remediation (STAR) technology for Geosyntec. STAR uses smoldering combustion to remediate non-aqueous phase liquid plumes moving through subsurface environments.
– Bill Ware , P.G., a geologist whose practice focuses on the assessment and mitigation of environmental matters associated with surface water and groundwater systems; hydrogeologic evaluations; environmental due diligence; regulatory compliance; and permitting.
Bill supports projects related to the characterization and management of a variety of environmentally impaired lands and surface water bodies; the assessment and remediation of impacted media inland and within coastal areas; contaminated property redevelopment; and the beneficial re-use of impaired properties.
His projects to date address a range of contaminants, including solvents, radionuclides, dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), pesticides and herbicides, and various metals.
