Mr. Dominic Morales is an engineer and a recent graduate of Arizona State University with a Bachelor of Science in Engineering degree in environmental engineering. He has experience in fieldwork, soil sampling and characterization, technical writing, and laboratory-scale remediation projects.

Remedial Design

Assessment of the Phosphorus Removal Capacity of Regenerated Steel Slag, Tempe, Arizona Assisted in research to explore the use of steel slag to remove phosphorus from tile drainage water. Applied various treatments to regenerate spent slag under various conditions. Collected data, produced figures, and contributed to research paper.

Sediment Investigation

Enzyme/Microbial-Induced Carbonate Precipitation (EICP/MICP), Tempe, Arizona Assisted in research investigating the use of EICP/MICP for the purpose of dust mitigation, foundation improvement, and erosion control. Collected and characterized soil samples using laboratory-scale techniques to determine carbonate content, particle size distribution, plasticity, and ion content.

Groundwater Sampling

Groundwater Sampling for Petroleum Hydrocarbons, Queens, New York Assisted with groundwater sampling and sample management in support of remedial investigations conducted to evaluate petroleum hydrocarbon contamination caused by underground storage tanks.
Groundwater Sampling for Petroleum Hydrocarbons, Newark, New Jersey Assisted with groundwater sampling from groundwater monitoring wells in support of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) investigations. Assisted with sample management and preparation of technical documents.
Groundwater Sampling for Petroleum Hydrocarbons, Newark, New Jersey Assisted with groundwater sampling and sample management in support of remedial investigations conducted to evaluate petroleum hydrocarbon contamination caused by underground storage tanks.
Groundwater Sampling for DNAPL, Navassa, North Carolina Assisted with groundwater sampling and sample management in support of remedial investigations conducted to evaluate dense nonaqueous-phase liquid (DNAPL) contamination of a marsh.

Site Investigation

Monitoring Well Installation, New Jersey Oversaw drillers in the installation of groundwater monitoring wells. Performed sediment characterization in support of determining monitoring well design.

Remedial Investigation

ISS Assessment, Navassa, North Carolina Assessed column testing and leachate results for the implementation of in situ solidification/stabilization (ISS) as a potential remediation strategy. Contributed related text to supplemental remedial investigation report.

Water Quality Monitoring

Surface Water Quality Monitoring and Sampling, Plattsburgh, New York Performed surface water quality monitoring utilizing a YSI multiparameter meter and KOR software. Collected surface water samples using a NISKIN sampling device and followed sample management procedures.

Monitoring

Mercury Testing, New York, New York Performed indoor air mercury testing using a Lumex RA-915 light mercury vapor analyzer.
SSDS Monitoring and Inspection, Brooklyn, New York Performed monthly monitoring to determine performance of a subslab depressurization system (SSDS). Performed daily SSDS inspections during building demolition.

Sediment Sampling

Soil Sampling, Peninsula, Ohio Performed sample homogenization and collected soil samples. Assisted with sample management and other various tasks as part of large-scale soil sampling event.
Sediment Sampling for PFAS Remedial Investigation, New Jersey Assisted with sediment sampling and oversaw drillers in support of PFAS investigations. Assisted with sample management and preparation of technical documents.

Health And Safety

Site Assessment Health and Safety Plan, Gibbsboro, New Jersey Contributed to a health and safety plan for a site visit to assess habitat conditions. Generated a job hazard analysis.

Feasibility Studies

Feasibility Study Report, Navassa, North Carolina Provided text to feasibility study report evaluating potential remediation strategies for DNAPL and DNAPL-related groundwater contamination.

Air Quality Monitoring

Air Sampling and Data Assessment, Great Neck, New York Assisted with indoor air and soil vapor sampling. Assessed results of sampling effort against New York State Department of Health guidelines. Prepared vapor intrusion investigation report.

Technical Writing

Air Sampling and Data Assessment, Navassa, North Carolina Contributed to portions of pilot study work plan to evaluate air sparging for the remediation of dissolved-phase constituents of concern and the weathering of DNAPL.
Remedial Action Completion Report, Navassa, North Carolina Assisted in the drafting of a remedial action completion report for the excavation and removal of contaminated soil. Created the report outline and assisted with the delegation of report components. Compiled project relevant documents and wrote portions of report text.
