Summary of Experience:
Tom Leroy has been an Associate Geologist and Project Leader for PWA
since 2000. He brings to the position extensive training in geologic
field methods, especially as they relate to erosion and sedimentation
processes on hillslopes and in stream channels. As Project Leader, he
is responsible for complete project management including proposal
writing, budget preparation, field data collection and mapping, field
crew supervision, data analysis, GIS map preparation, and reporting.
His work experience since joining PWA has emphasized applied erosion
investigations leading to the development of erosion control and
erosion prevention plans for federal, state and private landowners.
Mr. Leroy’s professional experience includes successfully completing
sediment source assessments in watersheds across Northern California.
He is skilled in all aspects of sediment budget analyses from air
photo analysis of land use and mass wasting to field surveys of
fluvial erosion, stream channel surveys, and analyses of surface
processes. He is a specialist in erosion processes and erosion control
planning for road systems, including both paved county roads and
unsurfaced forest and ranch roads. Past project experience includes
coordinating road related erosion assessments for the five Northern
California Counties (Del Norte, Trinity, Siskiyou, Humboldt and
Mendocino), covering thousands of miles of county roads.
Responsibilities for this project included providing technical
training and oversight to county crews conducting the inventory,
managing the data collection, and working with county Public Works
Departments to help them develop plans for implementing the prescribed
erosion control treatments. He has also been Project Leader for
multiple large assessments of rural subdivision lands in Sonoma
County, working with PWA field crews to complete the assessments and
erosion inventories, and develop remediation plans aimed at reducing
erosion and protecting fish habitat in these important watersheds.
Further professional experience includes Project Leader for erosion
assessments and sediment reduction implementation projects in the Van
Duzen River and Yager Creek watersheds at the request of the Yager and
Van Duzen Environmental Stewards (YES) group. Initiated in 2001, Mr.
Leroy has been instrumental in facilitating successful collaborations
among the local ranching community, the California Department of Fish
and Game, and the Regional Water Quality Control
Experience—cont.
Board. The project included assessing and developing a prioritized
implementation plan for more than 420
miles of ranch road, and has culminated in multi-phase implementation
and restoration efforts leading to reduced road related erosion and
sediment delivery, improved water quality, and lower long-term road
maintenance costs for private landowners in the watersheds.
