In Doesburg in the Netherlands, he designed the country's highest fish pass and supervised its construction. For the lower River Shannon he developed a program to ecologically upgrade the country's largest hydropower scheme, Ardnacrusha, for the Irish Department of Housing, Planning and Government. Currently he is advising various clients on how to restore up- and downstream fish passage at large hydraulic structures, such as the Iron Gate dams (Serbia/Romania) and the Afsluitdijk (Ijsselmeer/Wadden Sea in the Netherlands).
His clients value him for his extensive expertise in water management and hydraulics, as well as for his reliability and trustworthy nature. Combined with CDM Smith's multidisciplinary expertise, this gives his clients the confidence that their projects are in the best hands—from initial planning to successful implementation.
