Such studies include <br />the theory and control of seepage from earth tailing dams, earth water <br />retention dams and gypsum fields. As Chief of the Water Resources Divi- <br />sion, responsibility for water related projects includes: water supply, <br />retention and impacts related to water resources planning and development, <br />mining, milling and nuclear power. <br /> <br />Dr. Halepaska's career has included extensive research in many phases of <br />groundwater hydrology. Research in the Groundwater Section of the Kansas <br />Geological Survey under Dr. Halepaska's direction included seepage through <br />structures, groundwater flow, heat flow, gas flow, two-phase flow, ground- <br />water quality and the integration of theoretical and applied aspects of <br />active groundwater investigations. Dr. Halepaska has particular expertise <br />in the area of computer modeling of numerous software packages for ground- <br />water and other water resources hydrological studies. <br /> <br />Representative assignments include project manager of a combined Atomic <br />Energy Commission, Kansas State and Kanses University supported study of <br />radioactive waste storage in salt deposits in Kansas, which included as <br />assessment of the environmental impact in terms of potential groundwater <br />contamination, alternate storage site locations and heat flow calculations <br /> <br />WOODWARD-CLYDE CONSULTANTS <br />
