Larry was formerly a principal with Graef, Anhalt, Schloemer and Associates, Inc., where he worked in all aspects of environmental consulting for 11 1/2 years. Larry brings over 27 years of experience to environmental projects involving all aspects of environmental consulting, including environmental assessments, ecological impact studies, wetland and subsurface investigations, and groundwater and aquifer characteristic studies, etc.
Prior to working at GAS Larry taught Environmental Geology and Sedimentology, and other courses for seven years in the Geology and Geophysics Department at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. While consulting he has been asked to teach numerous times as an adjunct in the School of Architecture and Urban Planning (SARUP) where he has taught "Environmental Aspects of Development & Planning" for the graduate curriculum.
The following is a brief listing of selected projects across a broad range of areas in which Larry has worked:
Larry has worked on projects involving Subsurface Geology and Structural/Foundation Analysis.
- Historic Building Study, Milwaukee WI
Geologic and engineering study of foundation and structural integrity of 109 historic buildings along the Milwaukee River. Examined settlement and subsidence patterns, subsurface geological conditions, and possible mechanisms for foundation failure. Study results included listing of buildings most at risk, observed failures, and determination of renovation and preventive measures with estimated construction costs.
Larry served as the lead scientist on projects involving Marine or Freshwater Sedimentary Studies. Most recent among these projects are:
- Pike River Grasslands Restoration, Racine County, WI
Provided leadership on ecological, stream and wetlands team working with a local Racine engineering firm representing the Mt. Pleasant Drainage District and the Town of Mt. Pleasant. Much of 5.2 miles of the upper Pike River (a study area of 920 acres) has been channelized and disturbed since 1878. GAS, the WDNR, the engineering firm, SEWRPC, and the Town have joined to produce a flood mitigation, storm water planning, erosion control, and restoration of habitats master plan and implementation for this stretch of the Pike River.
- Fox River Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study, WI
Project manager for a detailed study of four sedimentary deposits in the Fox River to map and precisely define the areal extent of sediments contaminated with PCBs and metals using sub bottom acoustic profiling, precision bathymetric, and computer-aided navigation with Differential Global Positioning System. Over 120 box cores with approximately 600 samples were collected and were defined, plotted, and digitized in real time to accuracies of +1 meter. Mapping of the deposits was confirmed by poling. Each site will be examined for the most cost-effective cleanup in terms of technical feasibility, risks, costs, and socio-economic criteria. Project represents a unique cooperative effort between Wisconsin State Government through the Department of Administration and the Department of Natural Resources, local paper mills, and private sector through the Fox River Coalition.
- Gaslight Point Development Marina Docks Dredging, Racine Harbor, WI
