Please join us in congratulating J.T. Burden who is celebrating 23 years with Hydromax USA this week! J.T. joined Hydromax USA in 2001 to work on our very first cross bore project. Over the years, he transitioned to wastewater operations and became instrumental in building our presence nationwide. During his tenure, J.T. led operations for over 200 projects across 22 states, which included the evaluation of over 10 million linear feet of sanitary and storm sewers. His career focus has been to champion quality data and commitment to safety. His leadership and coaching efforts to instill that mindset within our field operations teams has been a key component in our growth and trust from clients nationwide. J.T.’s dedication to safety and quality are backed by key industry certifications like NASSCO PACP/LACP/MACP, OSHA Confined Space Entry, and OSHA 10. He continues to drive operational excellence as a Project Manager in both our Water and Wastewater divisions. Thank you, J.T., for your passion and unwavering commitment to keeping our critical infrastructure safe. Happy anniversary!

Happy Halloween! It’s almost time to get the kids costumed up and looking for candy! Drivers should be focused and on the lookout as there will be more pedestrians on the roads and in unexpected places. Remember to slow down and scan the road. Report any careless driving and suspected drunk driving by contacting law enforcement. And have a safe and happy Halloween!!!

Happy Fall! This weekend kicks off the official start of fall season with the Autumn Equinox on September 22nd. With the sun now heading south, our weather pattern transitions from summer to fall when we can soon expect cooler temperatures and shorter days, along with all the cozy associations, like your favorite sweater and changing leaves. While we consider the joys, it’s also a time to reflect on expected changes on the road like increased sun glare in the late afternoon, fog, rain, wet leaves, and more slippery roads. Remember to be aware of these conditions when driving. Monitor your speed and traction and be aware of more school bus traffic now that kids are back in school. The more tuned in we are to road conditions and safe driving techniques, the better we can enjoy the beauty of the season.

Please join us in congratulating Derek Niswonger who is celebrating 24 years with Hydromax USA this week! Derek joined Hydromax USA in 2000 to work on our earliest wastewater programs. During his tenure he has managed over 200 projects culminating in the evaluation of over 8 million linear feet of sanitary and storm sewers nationwide. He worked on our very first gas cross bore project and was instrumental in bringing multi-sensor work into HUSA’s early portfolio. He has been a pioneer, leader, and a coach in operations and equipment maintenance and development. Early on he worked to reengineer limited tools and equipment, helping to set the pace in a quickly growing industry. He opened our first repair shop and central equipment hub where he continues to build proprietary equipment and streamline vehicle and equipment maintenance projects. Derek, THANK YOU for all that you contribute to Hydromax USA and our industry. You are essentially at the center of everything we do. Happy anniversary!
