Michael Jaramillo

During his time with Shannon & Wilson, Michael Jaramillo has developed a high level of proficiency in managing projects, including Phase II environmental site assessments (ESAs), regulatory compliance, site characterization and remediation investigations, waste characterization, storm water pollution prevention plans, and above-ground storage tank closure assessments. With a strong background and degrees in chemistry, he has served as the Project Chemist on several Department of Defense (DoD) projects and has assisted with preparing Uniform Federal Policy for Quality Assurance Project Plans (UFP-QAPP), Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs), Environmental Protection Plans (EPPs), Closure Reports, and more for these projects. In addition, he leads the Fairbanks Environmental Staff Teams’ data review and validation quality assurance/quality control efforts. He is proficient in statistical analysis and database management of projects with large data sets, including landfills across urban and remote Alaska. 

Michael’s expertise in the evaluation of analytical data has led to his involvement in the Department of Transportation and Public Facilities’ (DOT&PF) statewide response to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination in Alaska. Michael serves as the Project Manager for several of these high-profile, public-relations-based environmental projects where private drinking-water wells have potentially been impacted by PFAS. These projects require community outreach activities, public relations support, rural community planning, site characterization and remediation investigations, waste characterization, agency coordination, and technical support.
