Bill has more than 20 years of experience in the consulting industry managing the preparation of preliminary design, the NEPA process and documentation, and the preparation of permit applications for a wide variety of federal agencies and actions across the country. Bill is an environmental planner and vice president of Gannett Fleming, Inc. in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and leads the efforts of professional engineers, scientists, planners, GIS analysts, and technicians. 

Bill has been a member of both NAEP and PAEP since 1989. For NAEP and PAEP, he served as the PAEP Chapter Representative to the NAEP board of directors from 2006 to 2011. For NAEP, he served as the Chapters Committee vice chair from 2007 to the spring of 2011. He is currently serving as the chair of the NAEP Chapters Committee and as a member of the NAEP Finance Committee.

By serving as a member of the NAEP board of Directors, Bill will work to support NAEP’s current initiatives started in recent years to further the NAEP brand and offerings. His overarching objectives for NAEP are to increase membership, increase diversity of membership, and continue to improve existing benefits. He would like to see NAEP promote its corporate membership category and make it easier for corporate members to join and renew memberships. Bill will also work to make it easy for the membership to see the opportunities that exist to become more active in both NAEP and chapters. As the chair of the chapters committee, he will continue to promote and advance the NAEP – chapter relationship by continuing to improve communication, working to create new chapters where chapters currently don’t exist, and exploring joint NAEP – chapter activities where both can share in program development and revenue.
