George E. McVehil, Ph.D., C.C.M
Dr. George McVehil is a Certified Consulting Meteorologist (CCM) whose technical specialties include
air quality analysis and regulatory requirements, atmospheric turbulence and dispersion,
and atmospheric effects of industrial activities and air emissions. In his more than 37
years of experience, he has performed original research dealing with wind structure in the
lower atmosphere, diffusion of air pollutants, acid deposition, quantification of air
pollutant emissions, and mathematical modeling of air pollution. His consulting work has
dealt with air quality impacts of industrial development, power generation and mining,
permitting of new facilities, and regulatory compliance issues.
Dr. McVehil is the author of more than three hundred papers and reports, including more than twenty reports on cooling tower plume behavior and atmospheric effects of cooling systems, and over one hundred reports on air modeling analyses for power generation and cogeneration facilities. He has prepared analyses and reports and provided testimony in support of licensing activities for nuclear and fossil fuel electric generating stations, mining projects, and various other industrial facilities. Dr. McVehil has extensive experience as an expert witness and consultant to law firms in litigation and regulatory matters related to air quality atmospheric transport and dispersion, and industrial impacts.
Mr. William Monnett is a senior supervisory air pollution and industrial meteorologist with 23
years experience in managing and performing air quality modeling, permitting and
aerometric monitoring projects. His particular areas of expertise include permitting of
new and modified sources under state and federal regulatory programs (PSD, NSR, Title V),
air quality modeling and control technology assessments, development of air quality
compliance and audit programs, hazardous waste site air pathways assessments, air quality
modeling of fugitive dust and modeling in complex terrain, air quality, meteorological and
air toxics monitoring techniques and preparation of Environmental Impact Statements and
other environmental documentation.
Mr. Monnett has extensive experience working for mining, oil and gas, synthetic fuels and other manufacturing and industrial clients throughout the U.S. and several global locations. He has also served as principal investigator for air pathways assessments in association with remedial investigations, feasibility studies and risk assessments for several large-scale Superfund clean-up projects. He is the author of more than five hundred technical studies, reports, and permit applications. He has served as technical coordinator for air quality studies associated with numerous environmental impact statements and assessments and has provided expert testimony for the mining, metals and natural gas industries.
