Perspectives Title
June 2012
Greetings from Olsson Associates

Jeff PalikWith my promotion this past spring to office leader for the Greater Nebraska region, I've been given the opportunity to greet our Nebraska clients as we keep you up to date on our office and industry activities. John Olsson and I will alternate our monthly messages to you, and we welcome your feedback and questions.  

  

We've had several exciting projects and activities come to fruition over the past month--especially in Grand Island. This growing city recently approved our work on a new wastewater treatment plant and collection system and a groundwater dewatering project. Our staff members even had the opportunity to influence the next generation of water engineers by presenting their knowledge to elementary school children at the 2012 Groundwater Festival.  We invite you to read on to learn more.

 

Here's to the start of a great summer!
