Thomas Giles, Geologist
Experience. Quality. Affordability.
I am a professionally licensed geologist in Texas and New York State with over thirty years of experience. I provide a variety of services for mining operations large and small ranging from permitting to quality control.
If there's a related service you need that I don't specialize in, I know the professional who does.
I understand every client's needs are unique, and I strive to provide cost-effective services to ensure your project will be compliant.
DEC MINING PERMITS
MINING COMPLIANCE
Every mining permit for sand and gravel pits and rock quarries is a unique situation, and I've seen them all.
I am thoroughly familiar with every facet of the mining permit process:
Storm Water Control
Wash Plant Permitting
Water Withdrawal Permitting
Air Pollution Permitting for Dust
Archaeology
Mine Safety
Noise Measurement and Mitigation
If you are looking for a NYS DEC mining permit, I'm the best place to start; the first and only consultant you need.
