I'm sure Chris Chatto or Brian could hunt down ZGF contacts on Vance
and EPA. Peter Alspach at ARUP is also a good Vance Building speaker.

Thanks for contacting Blair about possibly speaking for a WMIG Case
Study, I have added the project to the Case Study outline below. I
have not gotten any other interested parties to comment on the "Black
and Grey" case study outline so I am having a hard time gauging if
there is any other interest.

Right now Dockside Green is the only project on the outline that has
won a WMIG award, and the only that has any black water treatment. I
could see pairing Dockside Green with the Amazon.com projects black
water local jurisdictional hurdles, but I think we still need a
shnazzy local WMIG project for the event. Any ideas COTE?

OPTION 2
Black and Grey: Water Re-Use Strategies and Policy
Projects:
- Federal Office Building on 5th with large grey water re-use
(possible event location and tour)
- W Hotel Water Re-use
- Amazon.com S Lake Union Black water implementation hurdles.

- Dockside Green

Presentation Focus:
-Recent POL 1017 and what this means to Architects
-Grey and Black water treatment and re-use implementation
-Related systems maintenance issues

Hi Jesse,

I briefly worked with this great Mechanical Engineer who has a lot of
knowledge & energy named Blair McCarry from Stantec in Vancouver. He
was also the Mech'l Engineer on Dockside Green which won a WMIG Award
in 2009. As of a week or two ago Peter Busby asked him to join P+W
Vancouver and is working out of that office exclusively.

I asked him below if he knew if he'd be in Seattle sometime in January
or February since he is now working on another project with our
office. I thought he could talk about the many options & sides of
blackwater treatment. Let me know if you're interested. He is really a
funny guy, with lots of personality. The problem would be nailing down
a time for him to be here.

take it easy,
