My Philosophy
I started my career with the US
Geological Survey (USGS) as part of
a project that had two main goals; (1)
to figure out how to apply geology to
real life situations, and (2) to
communicate those results to the
appropriate users. I carried those
goals with me throughout my 41-year
career with the USGS.
I was the USGS Aggregate Geologist
from 1976 until my retirement. My
current business builds on the
knowledge I gained with the USGS,
and I now specialize in aggregate
resources (sand, gravel, and crushed
stone) and other industrial minerals.
As a Research Geologist, I utilize the
scientific method to acquire geologic
knowledge and arrive at conclusions
about the world around us. The
scientific method is conducted in an
objective manner and tends to
produce unbiased results.
Regarding aggregates and other
industrial minerals, those results can
be used:
•
During the permitting, land-
use planning, and resource
protection process to facilitate
informed land use and
resource management
decisions.
•
For the selection of mining
and processing methods to
maximize production
efficiency and minimize
environmental impacts; and
•
For planning and
implementing the reclamation
of mined-out areas.
