EXPERIENCE SUMMARY

Mr. Waymire's project experience includes:

• Fugitive dust and particulate matter dispersion modeling for the Castle Mountain gold mining operation.
• Air permitting for refinery reformulated fuels project including alkylation, process heaters and boilers, flares, naphtha isomerization, FCC unit jet cut tower, and tanks.  Quantified criteria pollutant emissions and completed air toxics and accidental release modeling assessments.
• Compliance evaluations including air quality source-specific standards, new source review, best available control technology determinations, and federal source performance standards for reformulated fuels designs.
• Flammability and air toxics assessment to study process relief scenarios for hydrocarbons from a refinery dehaxanizer pressure relief valve.  Simulated dense gas release via the Lawrence Livermore SLAB model.
• Air quality modeling in complex terrain for a paint manufacturing facility in San Diego with over 280 receptor centroids.
• Air toxics health risk assessments for the Miramar, 32nd Street, and Camp Pendleton military facilities in southern California for hundreds of receptors, pollutants, and sources under the Comprehensive Long-Term Environmental Action – Navy (CLEAN) program.
