Steve, Orion’s Denver-based senior project engineer, attended a monthly luncheon in Golden, Colorado, organized by the Rocky Mountain Association of Environmental Professionals (RMAEP). The RMAEP luncheon presenter was Professor John Ryan of the University of Colorado, Boulder’s Department of Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering. Professor Ryan is also faculty director of the National Science Foundation-funded AirWaterGas Sustainability Research Network. AirWaterGas’s research focuses on addressing the effects of oil and gas development on air and water resources in the Rocky Mountain region. Steve took note of the results of AirWaterGas’ research related to water quality and the occurrence of methane and BTEX in aquifers above Denver‑Julesburg Basin in northeastern Colorado.
