Jun 2021 - Present
• Conducted air quality dispersion analysis for multiple gravel pit permit renewals in Stettler County. Total suspended particulates (TSP) and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) were modelled in AERMOD for comparison against the Alberta Ambient Air Quality Objectives (AAAQO). • Assisted various clients quantifying greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and reporting to the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). Quantification methods applied include the Western Climate Initiative (WCI), Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Inventories. • Drafted a fugitive dust management plan for transmission line construction in rural British Columbia. The plan summarized potential emission sources, dust mitigation practices, and a trigger action response plan (TARP) for stakeholder review. • Assisted co-workers on alternate projects including participating in a bird survey program (bird sweep) and bear den program (wildlife sweep) in advance of herbicide spraying and logging activities in the oil sands.
