I really like your post. I’m junior in an AP Environmental Science class and we’ve learned about Superfund sites and the fact that it’s the EPA’s job to clean them up, but this post brought everything to reality. I love how hands-on your job is and how you don’t just work on one step of the clean-up process. I think it is because you work on the project from start to finish that you really have that feeling of accomplishment and feel that you’re making a difference. I aspire to work in the EPA and seeing as being the remedial project manager for the Superfund Division is such a fulfilling career for you, it’s likely to be one for me as well. Like you, I have always felt that it’s important to protect the environment I am also interested in the correlation between humans and the environment. More particularly, though, I like focusing on ways to reduce the negative impacts of humans on the planet. Cleaning up Superfund sites would definitely hit the target I’m aiming for in my career attempts to better the environment. Thanks for all you do!
Paris
