Here's a update from my busy life. I'm currently
working on an expansion project for an Indian Health
Service clinic. The project is focused around three
major components; new building space, renovation of
existing space and a HVAC mechanical system
retrofit. The project is in the conceptual design
phase. I find the project interesting every day. I
like to dive a little into the engineering fields
not particularly in my realm, like mechanical or
electrical. I also have a environmental assessment
project under way. The intent is to test for
asbestos, lead and conduct surveys of hazardous
conditions of buildings. This is allowing for me to
travel for work. (see the photo below of the Grand
Coulee) Under way and on my mind is to dig into
energy projects. It is a big puzzle to put together.
My school work is interesting at the moment, I have
two classes. I'm learning once again about
hydrological modeling applications. I also have a
class on public policy of natural resources. My
focus is on tribal rights, working on a paper of
indigenous knowledge is fishing and hunting
policies. |
