Mr. Gary Casuccio is a vice president at RJLG. He has more than 30 years experience in environmental particulate characterization. He joined RJLG at its inception in 1980. His broad background includes expertise in environmental matters, having been involved in numerous projects related to receptor modeling, dispersion modeling and source and ambient field sampling. He has also been instrumental in the development of Computer Controlled Scanning Electron Microscopy (CCSEM) and pioneered receptor modeling techniques utilizing CCSEM data to assist in the identification of sources of particulate matter. Mr. Casuccio has been the lead on dozens of high profile government projects. He was the project leader for development of sampling and analysis protocols related to Department of Energy Continuous Fiber Composite Program. He was the task group leader on the development of sampling and analysis protocols on single crystal ceramic whiskers for ASTM Subcommittee E34.70 and D22.04. He served as advisor to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on the analysis of particulate matter using SEM and CCSEM techniques. He conducted studies on particulate samples collected in NASA Space Shuttle. He designed experimental procedures and conducted projects on ambient samples collected in Kuwait for the U.S. Army. He was an instructor of short courses on CCSEM and receptor modeling conducted for the American Association for Aerosol Research, Fine Particles Society and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. He was instrumental in the conception, design, development and commercialization of RJ Lee Group's Zeppelin xP Microimaging System. He was also principal investigator on a National Science Foundation project involving the development of a scanning electron microscope simulator for use in education. Prior to RJLG, Mr. Casuccio was project scientist at Betz-Converse-Murdoch Engineers. He managed the air quality section; designed and managed air quality projects; performed source, ambient and indoor sampling and was involved in client development, proposal writing and solicitation of new business. He is a member of the Air & Waste Management Association, Air & Waste Management Association, American Association for Aerosol Research, American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM committees D22 and E34), Microscopy Society of America, American Chemical Society and Materials Research Society. He has published in peer-reviewed literature. |
