Apr 2009 - Dec 2011
Mr. Kosko was responsible for leading an exploratory team during the all hazards analysis at the SM-1 and SM-1A Army Nuclear reactors. Mr. Kosko was the first individual to enter the reactor vapor container vessel in these facilities for the purpose of identifying the nature and extent of hazardous materials contained therein. He was responsible for developing detailed work plans that include the Waste Management Plan. He solved numerous complex problems including development of a safe approach for entry into the SM-1A primary reactor vapor chamber where there was an “immediately dangerous to life and health” (IDLH) atmosphere. He interfaced daily with site personnel, state and federal regulators and clients to ensure the highest degree of satisfaction. He played an integral role in the development of the Fort Belvoir SM-1 Characterization Report and was the primary author of the Cost, Schedule Baseline and Hazardous Waste Management Plan that will be used by the US Army Corps of Engineers to lobby for congressional funding to decommission the SM-1 facility. Mr. Kosko managed these complex projects successfully meeting an aggressive schedule. Other Projects Managed: SM-1A Army Reactor RI/FS, Forest Glen, Middlesex Municipal Landfill and Walter Reed MARSSIM Final Status Survey. Show less
