EXPERT TESTIMONY EXPERIENCE<br />

Soil and groundwater contamination with hydrocarbons was discovered at an industrial site<br />

in City <strong>of</strong> Commerce, California 10 years following sale <strong>of</strong> the property. Reviewed data and<br />

performed numerical simulations for defendant to assess timing <strong>of</strong> release events.<br />

Various suits were brought against Texaco and Star Enterprise by property owners within<br />

and beyond the current extent <strong>of</strong> contamination <strong>of</strong> a fuel release from a distribution terminal<br />

in Fairfax, Virginia. Reviewed data and performed computer simulations for defendant to<br />

evaluate impacts <strong>of</strong> the fuel release on properties in the past and in the future.<br />

Chlorinated solvents were detected in groundwater in a residential area in Greenville, South<br />

Carolina adjacent to a fiber manufacturing plant. Retained by plaintiffs to review data and<br />

perform numerical simulations <strong>of</strong> groundwater flow and dissolved solvent migration to<br />

assess timing <strong>of</strong> the release and to make prediction <strong>of</strong> the future extent <strong>of</strong> groundwater<br />

contamination.<br />

A large fuel oil spill was discovered at an ore processing facility in New Jersey following a<br />

property sale. Served as an expert for defendant binding arbitration. Reviewed data and<br />

performed analyses to assess the release volume and timing.<br />

Chlorinated solvents were detected in a water supply well used at the mobile home park in<br />

Greenville, South Carolina. Retained by plaintiff to evaluate the source <strong>of</strong> groundwater<br />

contamination.<br />

Gasoline contamination was detected in the McCoy property. Reviewed data for plaintiff to<br />

evaluate probable source <strong>of</strong> contamination.<br />

Chlorinated solvents were detected in groundwater at a private well in Columbia, South<br />

Carolina. Retained by plaintiff to determine the probable source <strong>of</strong> groundwater<br />

contamination. Reviewed data and performed simulations <strong>of</strong> groundwater flow and dissolved<br />

chemical transport.<br />

A property sale by plaintiff fell through due to contamination with chlorinated solvents on an<br />

adjacent site. Retained by plaintiff to determine if property had been contaminated.<br />

PCB contamination in soil at a die casting plant in Addison, Illinois was detected after site<br />

cleanup. Plaintiff argued contamination was caused by wastewater leakage during site<br />

cleanup. Retained by defendant to determine when and how soil contamination occurred.<br />

Insurance liability dispute concerning costs for remediation <strong>of</strong> fuel contaminated sites.<br />

Retained by defendant to determine the timing <strong>of</strong> fuel releases at a distribution terminal.<br />
