BACKGROUND SUMMARY

I graduated from Alfred State College in 1972, with an A.A.S. degree in agricultural engineering.

I began my career with the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets on March

21, 1974 as a Dairy Products inspector. During my tenure with the Department I obtained

extensive experience in all aspects of the regulated dairy industry through direct fieldwork

activities, and participated in all available on-going Division training.

My position was upgraded to Dairy Products Specialist in 1980, following which I performed

substantial"out-of-title" supervisory and employee training activities, and eventually was

promoted to supervisor of the Western New York counties in 2004.

I consistently received top ratings in semi-annual Departmental evaluations, and given all

advanced training until my retirement in October 2008.

Personal Expertise

Technological changes in the dairy food industry requires continuous updating and

training, and my personal quest has always been to obtain the best training and experiences

available in order to work with dairy businesses of all sizes.

I have been a trainer for New York State Dairy Product Specialists and the W.N.Y. food

industry for over 30-years, including Cornell University updates, SUNY Buffalo State College

certificate programs, and Western New York seminars.

My strongest abilities lie with my communication skills and interpersonal working

relationships with dairy and food industry, regulatory, and academic personnel, and my efforts

at continuous personal and personnel improvement. I received recognition awards as Dairy

Products Specialist of the Year, Directors Awards for Outstanding Investigations (_6 times), and

, Buffalo State College Department of Nutrition.

Since my retirement from the Department, I have been continuously involved in

consulting activities concerning USPH compliance, HAACP and SQF (Global Food Safety

Initiative) certifications in Upstate New York and Southern Ontario, Canada.

Dear Mr. Danna:

This letter is my request to remain on the Planning Board for Environmental Sciences at Erie Community College. Much of my 25 year consulting career has been in the environmental/earth engineering fields, and I believe I would have a lotto offer ECC in these areas.

I have passed all the traditional undergraduate and graduate-level science classes typical of Bachelor and Master of Science degrees including biology, chemistry, calculus, physics, geography, and geology. My M.S. degree involved the geochemical determination of paleo-temperatures in the Black Hills, South Dakota, using a two-mica geothermometer. My post-M.S. work involved determining Pressure/Temperature paths in the Ruby Range in Montana by determining the chemistry of garnet zoning.

Parallel to the above geochemisty work, I also studied hydrogeology, which became my career for the next 2 5 years. As a hydrogeologist with environmental consultancies, I gained broad experience in environmental investigations and remediation in a diverse field of projects, including hazardous waste disposal facilities, renewable energy, water supply projects, former manufacturing plants, manufactured coal gas sites, and underground mines. More recently, I have been directing projects in the Oil & Gas field including impoundment construction, regulatory compliance, and spill investigation and remediation. I am familiar with the process of high-volume hydraulic fracturing and have observed an on-site well frack at a site in Pennsylvania. I remain well connected to a variety of operators of the above sites as well as former colleagues and believe I could offer professional support and ideas for students entering the workforce or transferring into related majors at other colleges.

Best regards,

DavidWehn
