Frontier has assembled a project team with significant experience in implementing design-construction, remediation, management services, and environmental construction projects. A summary of the management role of each team member and a brief discussion of their experience is provided below:

Daniel S. Hinds, CEM, RHSP:
 President, Program Director. Mr. Hinds is President of Frontier Environmental Services, Inc. and has more than thirty years of diverse experience in the fields of hazardous waste management, systems safety engineering, evaluation of chemical process, environmental auditing, health and safety and compliance, construction, and construction management services. Mr. Hinds also has expertise in turnkey environmental remediation.

Since 1990, Mr. Hinds has been devoted to engineering and construction management tasks with experience in environmental, chemical processing, industrial, and heavy construction projects. He was task manager for a system safety evaluation of a coal to methanol facility, and a nerve agent de-militarization facility. He was directly responsible for corporate RCRA program management, and a Project Manager for CERCLA actions.

Mr. Hinds has served in various management positions to ensure cost effective services for government agencies and diverse industry projects. He has managed a multi-disciplinary technical staff dealing with hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facility; hazardous waste management; RCRA site corrective action implementation; RCRA Part B permitting process; alternative treatment technologies; and health and safety contingency planning.

Brent A. Scarbrough, PE:
 
Vice President, Project Engineer. Mr. Scarbrough is a Project Manager/Engineer for Frontier Environmental Services, Inc. and has a master’s degree in the field of environmental engineering.  Mr. Scarbrough has been involved with the environmental field and construction management since 1992. His specific fields of experience include hazardous waste management, storm water management, quality assurance and quality control, health and safety compliance, sampling and analysis, permitting, and heavy equipment operations.  Mr. Scarbrough has direct project experience with industrial facilities closure, land application systems operation and maintenance, design and implementation of a large-scale storm water management plan for an EPA Superfund site, design and construction of stream restoration projects, reclamation of mined lands, mine closure, and low-level radioactive waste management.  Mr. Scarbrough has authored and implemented various site cleanups under the CDPHE Voluntary Cleanup Program and RCRA’s Integrated Corrective Action Plan Program.  Mr. Scarbrough has been involved with project management in all aspects of the environmental field.

Clay E. Combrink:
 Project Manager, Project Scientist. Mr. Combrink is Project Manager for Frontier Environmental Services, Inc. and has been involved with environmental construction and related tasks. Mr. Combrink has specific project experience with mined tailings, low-level radioactive waste, industrial and commercial facilities closure, and geotechnical exploration. Mr. Combrink also has specific experience with
hazardous waste management, storm water control, quality assurance and quality control, health and safety compliance, heavy equipment operations and management of natural landscapes. He has supervised EPA, State of Colorado and private entity projects since 1991, and has managed a geotechnical office and the clientele associated with it before coming to Frontier. Mr. Combrink has extensive experience in sampling of contaminated soil and water, as well as a thorough understanding of the natural processes involved in environmental remediation.

Joseph J. Feiler:
 Project Engineer. Mr. Feiler has a broad engineering and project management background encompassing experience in the construction and mining disciplines since 1980. His expertise has been proven in diverse project types involving general construction; mining; surface and underground reclamation engineering and contracting; concrete and cellular (foamed) concrete/grout; geotechnical, environmental and investigative drilling; and environmental remediation. He has implemented projects to as much as $10,000,000 including selection, procurement and quality control of management and administration from marketing, proposals, bids and cost estimates, through project accounting, scheduling and work with clients and regulatory agencies, to field superintendence, hands-on construction, heavy equipment operation, report writing and supervision of field crews.

Travis R. Snyder:
 Construction Manager, GIS technician. Mr. Snyder has a bachelor’s degree in the field of Environmental Science with a concentration in hydrology.
He has extensive knowledge and varied experience in the fields of environmental design, construction implementation, and watershed management. He’s participated in environmental projects including: slope stabilization and re-vegetation, stream restoration, reclamation of mined lands, radioactive site decommission, and high altitude paving operations. Mr. Snyder has provided project management and quality control for large scale reclamation projects since 2004. He has extensive practice with water quality field and laboratory analysis, heavy equipment operations as well as experience with ArcGIS and MODFLOW.

 

Nicholas A. Ochs, AC:

  Construction Manager. Mr. Ochs has been with Frontier Environmental Services, Inc. since 2003.  He has a Bachelor of Science Degree, from East Carolina University, in Construction Management, as well as a minor in Business Administration. Mr. Ochs has also been accredited by the American Institute of Constructors, as an Associate Constructor.  He provides experience that comes from hands-on training, as well as formal education, and emphasizes the highest levels of safety and quality in all tasks performed.  His experience stems from work involving environmental construction, mine rehabilitation, mine tailings remediation, acid mine drainage treatment, grading/ earthwork, and general infrastructure construction.

 

 

 

Key Personnel: 

  Based on a combined 100-plus years of experience of Frontier’s Principal and permanent staff in environmental construction in the Rocky Mountain states, Frontier has developed a network of specialized environmental professionals, craftsmen, equipment operators, and laborers with significant experience in implementing environmental construction and remediation projects.  Because environmental projects vary significantly, Key Personnel will be assigned to Frontier’s projects based on relevant experience and the necessary skills to perform project-specific tasks.
