| You can hear a short interview with Timothy Lynch discussing this
presentation.
|
Mr. Lynch will be talking about the NYSERDA Power-saving Partners Programs
which provide cost shared energy advise and capital cost incentives to Con
Edison customers for projects that save electricity and gas energy These
programs consist of Technical Assistance; New Construction, Peak Load, Enhance
Commercial and Industrial Performance, and Loan Fund. Program eligibility and
features and benefits will be discussed along with an opportunity to ask about
specific projects.
Mr. Lynch has more than twenty-five years of energy/consulting/customer services experiences delivering technical solutions to commercial and industrial facilities in am around New York. He currently runs the metropolitan New York City office for SAIC Energy Solutions with responsibility for its contract with NYSERDA to provide customer outreach and program management services in the downstate New York region and for delivering energy consulting services to SAIC commercial customers in the area.
Prior to joining SAIC, Mr Lynch worked in various management capacities at Consolidated Edison managing for its Energy Services group innovative electric programs like its Real Time Pricing Rate Program, the Thermal Storage Rebate program, and the Customize Energy Management Incentive. He also developed R&D projects related to energy end use including the development of an artificial intelligent based building management controller and a clathrate ice storage system. Before working for Con Edison, Mr. Lynch was the marketing manager for a startup laser system manufacturer and a sale engineer for Dana Industrial.
Mr. Lynch has a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering and a Master of Mechanical Engineering and is a registered professional engineer in New York State.

"Engineering Aspects of the Construction of NYC Water Tunnel No. 3"
Ted Dowey, P.E., Project Manager, NYC Dept of Environmental Protection
Deep beneath Manhattan, nine miles (14.5 km) of tunnel have been excavated and ten shafts have been constructed, completing the excavation for New York City’s Water Tunnel No. 3. The contract for $670 million was executed by the joint contracting venture of Schiavone Shea Frontier-Kemper. The tunnel, 12’ 6” (3.8 m) in diameter and 500 plus feet (152 m) deep, was driven by a tunnel boring machine. Nine new shafts averaging 530 feet (161 m) deep were constructed in a variety of geologic and urban environments using blasting, raise boring, soil mix walls, ground freezing, pile driving, and soldier piles and lagging. The engineering components and production rates for the tunnel boring machine and raise boring machines are presented. Blasting techniques in the shaft (subject to vibration and noise restrictions) are presented. The structure of the combined DEP and consultant staff is discussed.
Mr. Ted Dowey, is an Executive Construction Manager for the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). He is directing the construction management of the Manhattan Tunnel contract. This is a $670 million project building nine miles of tunnel and ten deep shafts with a staff of over 30 DEP and consultant engineers, geologists, and inspectors. Mr. Dowey has been involved with the construction of New York City’s Third Water Tunnel for over 20 years, starting as a geologist, becoming a construction inspector, resident engineer, and finally the executive construction manager directing all aspects of the construction management for the project. Mr. Dowey also directs the geotechnical program which provides geotechnical information for the tunnel and shaft designers and provides a basis for contractor bids on the tunnel contracts. Mr. Dowey conducts community outreach at construction locations, informing and coordinating with Community Boards, elected officials, residential and commercial entities, and neighborhood organizations. Mr. Dowey has a BA in Geology from Columbia College, an MS in Mining Engineering from the Columbia School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and a New York State Professional Engineer License. Mr. Dowey has published three articles for the Rapid Excavation and Tunneling Conference and has had three tunnel photography exhibits.
This pair of presentations has been
approved for 3.0 PDH for licensed P.E.s in NYS.
Both sessions must be attended to receive the credit. However, each
session will be freestanding in content, so you will benefit from attending
either one from an instructional standpoint.

Attenuating the corrosion of piping and plumbing materials has become an important task for drinking water suppliers since the promulgation of the Lead and Copper Rule (LCR) under the Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments. Aside from the public health concerns, the deterioration of pipe, storage, valve and ancillary materials and components due to internal corrosion also impacts the cost and efficiency of providing safe drinking water to the consumer.
This seminar will cover the basic electrochemical phenomena responsible for corrosion, the means of assessing the corrosive potential of drinking water supplies, the treatment strategies which can be employed for controlling corrosion, and the means of monitoring and optimizing corrosion treatment once it has been established. Attendees will leave understanding the steps required of a water purveyor to develop and implement a lead and copper corrosion control treatment program including pilot-scale treatment studies, full-scale design and implementation, preparing vendor contract specifications, and monitoring treatment performance.
Mr. Mastronardi, a licensed P.E. in NY, holds an M.E. and B.E. in Chemical Engineering from Manhattan College. He has been with the New York City Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Water Supply in various positions since 1990. Prior to that he was with the Westchester County Department of Health and Stauffer Chemical Company. In addition to his NYS PE, he holds these certifications: NYS Department of Health Licensed Grade IIA Community Water Systems Operator; Certificate in Secondary, Advanced and Hazardous Wastewater Treatment; Site Characterization for Subsurface Remediation; Strategies for Groundwater Aquifer Protection; and Fate and Transport of Subsurface Contaminants. He is a member of both the Bronx County Chapter of NYSSPE and the Tappan Zee Section of AIChE.
