• Create and manage RFIs, submittals, and project schedules
  
• Ensure compliance with:
  • PA DEP regulations
    
  • NPDES permits
    
  • EPA and other regulatory requirements
    
• Plan and execute plant shutdowns without disrupting operations or compliance
  
• Conduct jobsite visits and track progress daily
  
• Monitor job costs, maintain budgets, and ensure profitability
  
• Resolve technical, scheduling, and contractual issues
