Mr. Leppert uses his considerable experience in assessing environmental impacts of contaminants found in soil and groundwater in the design of goal oriented subsurface investigative programs. He is involved in projects from “cradle to grave”. Using appropriate engineering principles, Mr. Leppert oversees the design, evaluation, and implementation of site-specific mitigating measures for contaminants of concern. He is accustomed to working in heavily scrutinized settings. Mr. Leppert is practiced at the communication of complex scientific and engineering analysis results using state of the art presentation techniques. Mr. Leppert has twenty-five of complex groundwater flow systems and the transport of contaminants within those systems.  His experience includes the detailed evaluation of separate-phase contaminants, both Dense and Light Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids (such as fuels, solvents, and oils).  Mr. Leppert is adept in developing remediation/control systems to address contaminated groundwater and the associated soil profile. His project experience includes design of detection monitoring systems, evaluation of remediation system effectiveness, remedial system design, and assessment of risk using fate and transport techniques.  He is thoroughly versed in the use of state of the art computer simulators for a wide variety of subsurface environments.  His computer programming skills as well as his background in defensible, statistically based uncertainty analysis provides added value to accomplishing investigation objectives both accurately and in a timely fashion.</image:caption>
