Thanks - I'm just keeping an eye out for my coworkers name (he took civil). I paid my EIT waiting dues a way back. Brian

A quick search on the LicensePA web site shows that there are EITs with an issue date of TODAY 1/9/2013

Just got mine for Ohio - PASS! Brian

I took the Civl/Enviro PE in 2007 and passed (I thought i was pretty easy, actually). I was fortunate enough to have to take it again because of the Ohio Regs and my degree in engineer techology - they tell me I didn't have enough time between FE and PE per the OH regs (8 yrs vs 4 yrs in PA -...

Yes - PA accepts the 4-yr degree, as long as its ABET. As for the 2-yr, I think it's 8 years, but I haven't looks at the regs lately. I think a clerk at the OH PEPS office reviewed my app, and it actually didn't go to the Board for review. I'm writing an appeal letter now and I will claim 6...

Simple question about a Comity Application in Ohio. I am currently a registered PE in good standing in PA, with a 4-yr civil engineering technology degree and seeking comity in Ohio. Ohio regs state 8 years experience (two could be taken prior to graduation i.e. a co-op) is required between FE...

Thanks - I'll give that a shot and see what happens. Brian

Another question - Estimating peak flows - the only data available if water usage data for specific buildings contributing to flows at the pump station. Also, currently there is no meter at the station, and run times are not available for the pumps. Besides the Ballpark, which really does not...

You're right - we do think you're strange... lol... but you provide my pumps backup power - which I thank you for. Brian

'US' civil guys? Ok I see how you are... lol Thanks the the rant - I can work with that. Brian

With respect to separate contributory sewersheds, is it safe to assume different peaking factors for each specific sewershed when sizing a pump station? I am currently designing a pump station to replace to existing two pump stations. One PS serves a minor league baseball park (4 months of...

Pick up a copy of Cameron Hydraulic Data - it has most everything you'll need for hydraulics. I don't have my copy in front of me or I'd check some numbers for you. Brian

I have an old clock mechanism... I'll have to make a new face plate in autocad for it... hehehe Well, each section: air, water; clean-ups, waste, etc.. had a clock on the wall (gov't issue). They took those clocks. The point is they wield this secret power... they could have just come out and...

Nice...I like it.... I can put it right next to the "complaint department" hand grenade. It's amazing how low moral is. A few years back they created this "Climate Survey" to see how employees felt about various things... promotions, management, etc... and there were comment boxes (this was...

This is the best... I got the email about the clocks today... It was requested that I send out a memo to you to keep you informed of a recent decision to remove wall clocks from the office in case you are asked any questions from your staff. Some time ago a request came in to purchase a new...

Why not sizing culverts or small flow treatment plants? Here in PA, the culvert and wwtp plans need to be stamped by an engineer in order to get a permit. I know of quite a few engineers who freelance on the side doing small flow wastewater stuff. Heck, there's an SEO here in one county, who...

What are people's preferences, if any, on joining ASCE or NSPE, or both? Thanks. Brian

So today, I arrive at my cube, and go through my typical start-up routine: pour coffee from thermos, check voicemail and email, etc... I turn to look at the clock, and low and behold, it is gone. Now, I asked myself, maybe the batteries died... but why take the whole clock? As it turns out, the...

Speaking of blocked... finally got this site unblocked, using justification that valuable engineering information is gathered from here. Which, of course, is true. Everything here is blocked by SurfControl, yet all the IT people have access to nearly anything, and our IT guy doesn't too much...

Thanks. PM Sent Brian
