JERRY MULLIN
Working in the environmental field since
1993, Jerry Mullin has years of experience as a project geologist implementing field investigations and remedial actions for
contaminated sites and redevelopment projects. He manages environmental issues during brownfield site redevelopment. He has
conducted soil, groundwater, and air quality investigations and managed soil excavation and disposal at brownfield sites with
previous land uses such as scrap yards, metal plating, foundries, gas stations, printing shops, dry cleaning, rail yards,
and pesticide manufacturing. Recently, he was project geologist for the investigation and remediation of a 30-acre former
railroad property, and managed the environmental investigation and remediation of a former drycleaning operation where PCE-contaminated
perched groundwater is providing a source of vapor migration into a strip mall building; he conducted the environmental investigation,
delineated off-site groundwater contamination, and installed a soil vapor extraction system (SVE). A plume of contamination
extends off the former drycleaning property in the direction of a pond approximately 1200 feet west. The SVE controls movement
of contaminants in saturated soil.
Jerry has conducted environmental investigations in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa,
Michigan, Montana, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, Alabama, Kansas, Illinois, Arizona, and Oklahoma; and conducted surface
water compliance monitoring at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

ERIC GABRIELSON
Mr. Gabrielson has been working in the environmental industry since 1989. His specialty
is implementing field investigations and remedial actions for contaminated sites. He manages and coordinates all aspects of
environmental compliance issues pertaining to soil, groundwater, solid waste and air monitoring during all phases of contaminate
clean up. Since joining Landmark in the fall of 2004, Eric has served primarily as a field manager for multiple Phase II Investigations,
including soil and groundwater investigations using Geoprobe and test-trenching techniques at an automobile sales facility
in Hopkins, Minnesota and a former railroad depot property in Red Wing, Minnesota and an office complex in Hopkins. Eric also
assisted in the preparation of Phase II investigation reports for each project. Eric has also provided assistance in the assessment
and cleanup of meth labs.
Eric has worked on some significant remediation sites including a property that was impacted
with petroleum at 100 feet below ground surface, and began to draw in an acid vapor plume after the initial remediation system
began operations. This involved operating and maintaining five separate pollution devices including; a CatOx„µ
unit for thermal destruction of gas stream vapors, a soil vapor extraction to removed impacted vapor/capillary water in the
vadose zone, and an air sparge system to insert high-pressure ambient air into the saturated area adjacent to a major navigable
river.
Eric provided lead construction oversight and final cover construction and closure process for two landfills
in Wright County, MN. This included over 200 acres of impacted land. This was done under the MPCA landfill closure plan.
He provided construction observation for a soil vapor extraction (SVE) system at a superfund site in Central MN. Along
with this construction background he performs operations and maintenance of activities for several SVE systems around the
state.
