Update from AEG Charleston.

I have bee enjoying the AEG session in Charleston this week. I have renewed old and existing aquaintances and made some new ones. I will be attending a remediation seminar this afternoon, and there are a couple of other interesting technical seminars tomorrow. I have attended several lectures so far one on the state of the goeology and engineering geology profession and another on licensing for professional geologists. I also managed to finish up writing a Phase I ESA while I was here and picked up a couple more.

AEG Meeting- Charleston

It has been a busy few months. I have been doing a lot of Phase I ESAa lately. It has been good being busy, every time I finish one I get a call for another environmental assessment. Most have been here in North Carolina, but I also got hired to do ones in Nashville, TN and Alabama. My most recent one is right here in Monroe, NC.

I also recently returned to NJ to visit my family and to take an Underground Storage Tank (UST) course to keep Me New Jersey License. NJ recently started a new license, so mine will be able to do less in the future so I will probably let it lapse and get the new license when mine expires in 3 years.

Later this week I am going to the Association of Engineering & Environmental Geologists (AEG) annual meeting in Charleston, SC. This will be a good opportunity to meet with other geology and environmental professionals from throughout the Carolina's and the US. It will also be a good learning opportunity to keep up on current topics while getting the CE credits I need to keep up with my Professional Geologist licenses.
