“I’m inspired by applying private sector project delivery method­olo­gies to the municipal water treatment industry,” says desali­na­tion discipline leader Matt Trzcinski. He brings a wealth of knowledge to his role, with nearly three decades of engineering and project management experience from the consulting and equipment supplier POV.

Matt leverages his knowledge of developing and applying membrane tech­nolo­gies to water treatment processes to help clients reach resilience in their water operations, and throughout his career, he’s worked across the municipal, industrial, and commercial sectors. Matt has contributed to multiple significant projects such as the Appomattox Gulf of Mexico Semi-Submersible Deep-Water project, phases 1 and 2 of the Newark Desali­na­tion Facility in Newark, California, and the Kay Bailey Hutchison Desali­na­tion Facility in El Paso, Texas, which is currently the largest inland desali­na­tion plant in the U.S.

As a returning employee to the firm, Matt says, “I want to be a part of a world-class team. I appreciate the profes­sion­al­ism and technical expertise CDM Smith brings.” And, as a seasoned pro in desali­na­tion, he enjoys sharing his lessons learned through his years navigating the field, adding, “I love mentoring younger engineers and seeing their excitement to learn.”
