James Pattock E.I.T.

​

Staff Engineer II
B.S., Civil Engineering, Pennsylvania State University

Mr. Pattock performs a range of tasks including, site reconnaissance, civil design, cost estimation, bid documents, creation and review of reports, veneer slope stability, global slope stability, hydrology and hydraulics stormwater analysis and design, geosynthetics design, AutoCAD Civil 3d modeling and construction oversight. Performed direct oversite of more than 100+ acres of geosynthetic liner installation. Provided construction management and QA/QC for a large superfund project on the east coast involving the asbestos abatement/demolition of multiple commercial buildings, geosynthetic capping, and wetland restoration. Performed field management of the CQA associated with the closure of a large CCR impoundment in western PA. Previous to his time at KEY, he performed field oversight and QA/QC tasks associated with in-situ soil stabilization project and the installation of a soil bentonite slurry wall.
