This internship evolved into a career, and Chris obtained his California Grade V Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator certificate in 2014. Partnering with PG&E in 2015, Chris was a key team member in spearheading the WRRF's Sustainable Turnkey Solutions energy efficiency upgrade, the first municipal project of its kind in California. His team has built on a 14-year relationship with California Polytechnic State University and their on-site algae research station that is a leading biofuel and low-energy nutrient reduction study site. Breaking ground in mid-2019, Chris is a member of the facility's core management team that is steering a $140M regulatory-driven upgrade. Paralleling the larger project, the SLO WRRF team is participating in a second PG&E sponsored energy audit program known as a large integrated audit (LIA). The LIA is a collaborative effort between CIty staff, PG&E, AESC, several other agencies, and local and state higher education (Cuesta College and California Polytechnic State University).
