and integration of all hydrologic and climatic studies as they pertain to
the Yucca Mountain work.

Bill began his career with the Survey in 1973 as a Hydrologist with the

of Florida.  For the next 10 years, Bill continued his education and served
on special projects until finding himself transferred to the Nevada Distric
