Harvey’s Lake Radon problem, Harvey’s Lake, PA, 2006 - This project consisted of sampling a home for Radon and then proposing reduction of these levels to a target concentration below tolerance levels (4pCi/l).  A calibrated continuous radon meter (photo-ionization meter -PID) determined radon levels at 14pCi/l.  A remediation packet with cost and specifications was presented to the client for review. Client signed the contract to implement sub-slab depressurization.  Three entry points were drilled into the concrete slab.  Four-inch PVC schedule 40 pipe connected the three holes in series to an exhaust fan that was piped to 2 feet about the roof. Confirmation testing validated the success of the remediation at a level of 0.4 pCi/l, which were below ambient background levels.

Baker Bank Volumetric, Scranton, PA, 2006 - This project required calculation of stockpiled unconsolidated material for mineral rights reimbursement. We used AutoCAD 2005, Raster Image 2004, aerial photography, topographic raster images, remote GPS equipment and hand-held transits to collect data and make remote calculations without trespassing on land-owners property. The client was part owner of the minerals and was gaining knowledge of the volume that is presently on-site. Client contacted POZ through research and qualifications to complete the job.  A letter of appreciation was returned with payment.

American Hotel, Carbondale, PA, 2008 - Prepared a Brief for Peach Tree Development for a submittal packet to City Counsel.  Brief provided a background and outlined the project to redevelop an existing building with historic potential.  We used our cultural resource team and available mapping, photographs, and documentation to outline the potential for its historic quality.

Wetlands Mitigation, Lackawanna Co., PA, 2008 to present- This project requires the oversight and permit submittals for the creation and enhancement of wetlands on farmlands and the subsequent backfilling of wetlands for the expansion of a manufacturing plant.  Work involved taking and analysis of composite samples, troubleshooting vegitative growth,using AutoCAD to fulfill the requirements of the permit and sealing the documents in an As-Built and periodic report for DEP.  Volumetric calculations for the backfill site required AutoCAD 3D design and a site survey.  This project involves three phases and will be on-going for 5 years.

Poplar Retaining Wall, Wilkes-Barre, PA, 2008 - This project required the preparation of technical specifications, design, and cost estimates for the demolition and construction of a 150-foot retaining wall 11 feet in height.  The work was done for T. Brennan Equipment and Excavation Co., Carbondale, PA.

Rt.209 & CR 513, Chester, Morris Co., NJ, 2009 - Prepared and submitted Site Health & Safety Plan, Materials Handling Plan (sampling plan included), and Pollution Prevention and Control Plan for the removal of regulated waste as part of a NJDOT road expansion project.

Rt. 325, Porter Twp., Schulkilll Co., PA, 2009 - Made and presented a pre-construction video to client for the replacement of a sanitary sewer line. 

Francis E Walter Dam, Luzerne Co., PA, 2009 to present -  POZ is providing professional geologic services to log and sample soil and rock cores for pre and post evaluation of grouting the abutement of a US Army Corps of Engineers reservior.  We also provided hydro-geologic expertise for the installtion of piezometers.  We are also preparing reports for the client to include a synopsis of the logs with photographs of cores and archieved sampling depths, and as-builts.  We generated a daily report from the reporting requirements in the SOW and have used it to track progress and specifics of each logged hole.
