<br />Project Engineer, MAAP OU-4 Region I <br />Groundwater Treatment System, USACE, Milan, <br />TN. Provided engineering support on the design of the <br />groundwater treatment plant with a design treatment <br />capacity of 1,300 gpm. The treatment system consisted <br />of eight groundwater extraction wells installed to <br />maximum depth of 222 feet, chemical feed system for <br />pH adjustment, influent tank, sand filtration, drying <br />beds, granular activated carbon adsorbers and backwash <br />system, and effluent re-aeration & discharge structure. <br />Conducted field QA/QC and construction support. <br />Prepared operations and maintenance (O&IvI) manual. <br /> <br />Lead Engineer, 102nd Street Landfill Superfund <br />Site, Oxychem and Olin Chemical corporations, <br />Niagara Falls, NY. Responsible for the design of $16 <br />million aqueous phase licluid (.APL) and dense non <br />aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) recovery, loadout <br />facility, slurry wall, and landfill cap. Design components <br />included slurry wall, .APL recovery trench, NAPL <br />recovery wells, embankment/bulkhead extending into <br />Niagara River, clay and geosynthetic cap, and relocation <br />of utilities and storm drainage. Surface runoff rates and <br />infiltration through the landfill cap were estimated. <br />Detailed engineering was performed to protect Niagara <br />River and bedrock aquifer while minimizing treatment <br />cos ts. <br /> <br />Senior Hydrogeologist, Fernald Environmental <br />Restoration Program, US Department of Energy <br />(DOE), Fernald, OH. Developed scope of \vork, <br />supervised subcontractor personnel, and modeled <br />hydraulics and contaminant migration of radio nuclides at <br />the Fernald site in support of the RI/FS and remedial <br />design for the CERCLA/RCRA Unit 2 (CRU2). CRU2 <br />units comprise the Solid Waste Landfill, Lime Sludge <br />Ponds, South Field, and Flyash Piles. Three dimensional <br />point and block kriging, a geostatistical technique, was <br />used to define source terms for a multi-layered, multi- <br />component S\VIFf-based fate and transport model. <br />Surface water, seeps, vadose zone, and groundwater <br />models were linked together to provide inputs for risk <br />assessment. Used inverse modeling technique to identify <br />high permeability channels for on site disposal facility <br />site selection. Also used fate and transport modeling to <br />demonstrate protectiveness of disposal cell design and <br />locate disposal cell over a sole source aquifer. HELP <br /> <br />SHAW ENVIRONMENTAL, INC. <br /> <br />06C 122OC6T <br /> <br />model was used to estimate infiltration and runoff rates <br />from the landfill cap. <br /> <br />Senior Hydrogeologist, Big D Campground, Olin <br />Chemical, Kingsville, OH. Developed plans, <br />managed investigation, and modeled hydraulics and <br />contaminant migration at this Superfund site with <br />complex boundary conditions. The IvlODFLOW based <br />model was used to design groundwater extraction system <br />that differed from the extraction trench system proposed <br />in the ROD. The fInal groundwater remediation system <br />consisted of eight wells and an artificial recharge trench. <br />Revised design resulted in saving of more than $1 <br />million dollars. Supervised construction and assisted in <br />the startup of the groundwater extraction system. <br />LandfIll was excavated and contaminated soils and <br />drums were incinerated using an on site incinerator. <br /> <br />Senior Engineer and Hydrogeologist, RI/FS for Six <br />Sites, Omaha ID/IQ, Ft. Lee, VAU. Responsible for <br />hydrogeologic evaluations, fate and transport modeling, <br />and feasibility study for the maintenance building, <br />military in field training, reformatory landfill, former <br />wastewater treatment site, and pesticide mixing sites. <br />Contaminants of concern include volatiles, semi <br />volatiles, pesticides, and metals. <br /> <br />Hydrogeologist, Letterkenny Army Depot, US ACE, <br />Chambersburg, PA. Evaluated multiple dye trace <br />study data in a karst geology w,ith solutionally enlarged <br />fractures, voids, sinkholes, springs, and caves. Assisted <br />in hydrogeologic interpretations, fate and transport <br />analysis, and develop remedial goals for Southeast .Area <br />(OUS) RI/FS, Off-post Groundwater (OU6) RI/FS, <br />and Truck Storage Area (OU7) RI/FS. <br /> <br />Lead Hydrogeologist, ALCOA Point <br />Comfort/Lavaca Bay Superfund Site, US EPA, <br />Point Comfort, TX. Provided technical oversight for <br />the RI/FS work at this site. Contaminants of concern <br />included mercury, aluminum, and organic contaminants. <br />Complex hydrogeology includes impacts of salt water <br />intrusions, fresh water lakes, and man made dredge <br />island. <br /> <br />AMAR CHAND BUMB, PH.D., P.E. <br /> <br />4 <br />
