Special Remediation Expertise:

Director of Engineering, Vice President of Site Engineering, and the Senior Vice President of Engineering at Nuclear Energy Services (NES) Division of Penn Central Corporation (PCC)

NES was a nuclear licensee that specialized in dismantlement and remediation of nuclear facilities and nuclear sites. Member of the radiation safety committee for this licensee.

Department of Energy chose NES to write DOE Decommissioning Handbook because NES had a unique breadth and depth of nuclear engineers and nuclear physicists on staff.

Personally, I wrote the Small Bore Piping chapter of the DOEs first edition Decommissioning Handbook, personnel on my staff authored other sections, and I reviewed the entire Decommissioning Handbook.

Page 15 of 18 Served on the Connecticut Low Level Radioactive Waste Advisory Committee for 10 years from its inception.

Managed groups performing analyses on dozens of dismantlement sites to thoroughly remove radioactive material from nuclear plants and their surrounding environment.

Managed groups assisting in decommissioning the Shippingport nuclear power reactor.

Shippingport was the first large nuclear power plant ever decommissioned. The decommissioning of Shippingport included remediation of the site after decommissioning.

Managed groups conducting site characterizations (preliminary radiation surveys prior to commencement of removal of radiation) at the radioactively contaminated West Valley site in upstate New York.

Personnel reporting to me assessed dismantlement of the Princeton Avenue Plutonium Lab in New Brunswick, NJ. The labs dismantlement assessment was stopped when we uncovered extremely toxic and carcinogenic underground radioactive contamination.

Personnel reporting to me worked on decontaminating radioactive thorium at the Cleveland Avenue nuclear licensee in Ohio. The thorium had been used as an alloy in turbine blades. During that project, previously undetected extremely toxic and carcinogenic radioactive contamination was discovered below ground after an aboveground gamma survey had purported that no residual radiation remained on site.

Additional Expert Qualifications - including and not limited to:

o Nuclear engineering management assessment, prudency assessment, contract administration, assessment and review o Nuclear power plant licensing and permitting - assessment and review o Decommissioning experience: including radioactive waste processes, storage issue assessment, and waste disposal o Nuclear safety and risk assessment, source term reconstruction, dose assessments, criticality analysis, and thermohydraulic assessment (i.e. power plant steam generation) o Systems engineering and structural engineering assessments o Cooling tower operation, cooling tower plumes, thermal discharge assessment, and consumptive water use o Technical patents, nuclear fuel rack design and manufacturing, and nuclear equipment design and manufacturing o Reliability engineering, & aging plant management assessments, in-service inspection o Employee awareness programs, whistleblower protection, and public communications o Quality Assurance (QA) & records Nuclear Engineering Experience 1970 to Present Expert witness testimony in nuclear litigation and administrative hearings in federal, international, and state court and to Nuclear Regulatory Commission, including but not limited to: Three Mile Island, US Federal Court, US NRC, NRC ASLB, ACRS, and Petition Review Board, California Public Utilities Commission, Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC), Diet (Parliament) Japan, House of Commons (UK), Vermont State Legislature, Vermont State Public Service Board, Vermont Public Utility Commission, Florida Public Service Board, Czech Senate, Connecticut State Legislature, Western Atlas Nuclear Litigation, U.S. Senate Nuclear Safety Hearings, Peach Bottom Nuclear Power Plant Litigation, and Office of the Inspector General NRC, and numerous Congressional Briefings and Hearings.
