Peter Loomis is an envi­ron­men­tal engineer with over two decades of experience in water and wastewater treatment areas at CDM Smith. “Seeing something go from an idea to a concept to a plan to a design and then to imple­men­ta­tion is incredibly exciting and inspiring. I really enjoy seeing a new idea that is in its infancy and watching that idea come to fruition,” he says.

His expertise lies in conducting water and wastewater treatment plant planning, design, and construc­tion management, collection system and distri­b­u­tion system planning, design and construc­tion management, water supply planning, master planning, procurement, instal­la­tion and start-up, alter­na­tives analysis, and permitting.

In one of his most notable projects, Peter served as the project manager and commis­sion­ing manager for CDM Smith’s DC Water project. He led the design and start-up teams to deliver a $215 million facility that lowered operating costs, reduced the facility’s carbon footprint, and improved energy efficiency.

Peter’s ability to concep­tu­al­ize and lead projects remotely is a valued asset to his team. “At CDM Smith, I have worked on design projects on all 7 continents, but I’ve only visited 3 of those continents,” Peter says. “It just proves that interesting things can be found anywhere.”
