Bio
Scott Pelhank CMRP
Jonathon is an exceptional Engineer both technically and practically. He is committed to safety and carried a majority of the weight in reducing our exposure to Ammonia by 10 fold, leading the project to prevent tank overflows of hazardous materials, and help prepare us to be PSM compliant. He was also critical in reducing our operational cost by 30% without impacting head count. If you ever need someone who understands the process, and how it can be translated into controls, Jonathon would be an excellent choice.
