• Site Manager for a $250K environmental
controls project for Bayer Corporation. The capping
project included the surgical excavation and off-site
disposal of 300 tons of U-listed phthalate-contaminated
soil. Once completed, Panther located and rerouted underground
piping services, performed site grading, subbase installation
and compaction, and installed an eight (8) inch thick
asphalt cap. Panther also performed sump relining services,
as well as the removal and installation of a new 1,000
sump. The project was field managed by Mr. Schaeffer
who, through careful communication and execution, saved
Bayer approximately $200K in disposal by utilizing a
strategic in-situ waste characterization program that
isolated limited hot spots of contaminated soil requiring
incineration, as well as allowing for the direct loadout
of contaminated soil for landfilling.
• Site Manager for the closure of an esters production
facility located in Carteret, New Jersey. Responsibilities
included reviewing existing process systems, assistance
in the development of a safe and efficient cleaning
and dismantling operation for the closure of over 100
process vessels, 18,000 linear feet of piping, 3,000
linear feet of duct work and the washing of over 180,000
square feet of walls, floors, sumps, trenches, dikes,
and incidental equipment. Mr. Schaeffer work closely
with Panther's project manager to coordinate the packaging,
transportation and disposal of 75,000 gallon of product/waste,
1,500 drums of various materials/waste and twenty four
(24) roll offs of discarded process system, solids and
debris. Mr. Schaeffer also oversaw over 250 confined
space entries at this site by Panther personnel.

• Site Manager for the decontamination and dismantlement
of 10,000 linear feet of a light-rail system contaminated
with PCBs for a New Jersey mass transit agency. The
project included establishing a decontamination area,
staging and washing of the rail system (included light

• Site Manager for the mass, but surgical, excavation
of 12,000 tons of metals and volatiles impacted soil
from a five (5) acre site located in Union Township,
New Jersey. The project involved establishing an simple
grade control program, excavation of an eighteen (18)
inch cut, relocation and staging of all soils to an
a soil staging impoundment constructed by Panther. All
waste was staged and secured with 10 mil plastic sheeting
for reuse a cover material at a local landfill, which
required NJDEP sampling plan submission, approval, testing,
characterization and acceptance at the final disposal
outlet.
• Managed components of a $1.1 million PRP and
EPA Lead Soil washing project in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania.
The site was excavated and screened and 19,100 tons
of metal impacted soil was then loaded through a soil
washing machine. The machine filtered out 1,100 tons
of contaminated soil, which was loaded out and disposed
of. The second phase of the project consisted of excavating
approximately 100 buried drums containing unknown contaminants.
Under Level B conditions, the drums were characterized
and overpacked under EPA direction. During the last
phase of the project, 2.5 miles of infiltration trenches,
which contained piping and electrical lines for 15 recovery
wells, were installed. A water treatment system was
also installed.
• Managed components of a $3.4 million dollar PADEP
demolition, grading and soil cleanup project. Specifically
responsible for demolition of various former manufacturing
operations and buildings, the excavation and management
of various soil waste streams including metals, PCBs
and volatiles. Project included the installation, management,
