  • Ensure compliance with local, state, and federal environmental regulations, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), Clean Water Act (CWA), and Endangered Species Act (ESA).
  • Provide engineering analysis for dam removal, including working with other team members to develop geotechnical investigations, topobathymetric surveys, structural stability analyses, and hydraulic and sediment transport models.
  • Design and optimize engineering solutions to ensure safe and effective removal while minimizing disruption to surrounding environments.
  • Working with McMillen's Design Technology Team, develop engineering plan sets across a range of design milestones, including Issued for Construction.
  • Working with multidisciplinary engineering project teams, develop construction specifications across a range of design milestones, including Issued for Construction.
  • Manage the scheduling, budgeting, and coordination of all project phases.
  • Supervise the preparation of project reports, grant proposals, and other documentation for stakeholders.
  • Ensure that all ecosystem restoration and dam removal activities comply with safety standards and best practices.
  • Conduct risk assessments and implement safety protocols to protect personnel, wildlife, and the public.
  • Engage with local communities, government agencies, tribal stakeholder, and non-profit organizations to promote dam removal projects and gain public support.
  • Prepare and deliver presentations to stakeholders, explaining the benefits of ecosystem restoration and dam removal as well as adaptive management, connecting people and nature.

  • Knowledge of federal and state environmental regulations, including CEQA, NEPA, ESA, and Clean Water Act compliance.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and project management skills.
  • Ability to work effectively with diverse stakeholders, including regulatory agencies, contractors, and the public.
