Please see the attached correspondence and resume with regards to Mr. Parkinson. As you can see, Mr.
Parkinson did not indicate a specific Board, Committee, or Commission he is interested in. However, I thought
I would stilt/ pass this along in case his experience and expertise meets a requirement of an vacancy or
upcoming vacancy you are interested in appointing.

PROJECT EXPERIENCE
Tahoe City Public Utility District, California
Project manager responsible for hydrogeologic services on numerous public water supply
projects on the northwest shore of Lake Tahoe. Services included groundwater development
feasibility studies, well site selection, aquifer pumping tests, water quality analysis, well design
and installation, and well maintenance/rehabilitation. Evaluated groundwater and surface water
supplies to determine the maximum potential safe yield of municipal wells.
City of Susanville, California
Project manager for hydrogeological investigation and review of an existing well design.
Evaluated the well hydraulics and radius of influence by pumping the high-capacity municipal
well and observing the effect on adjacent wells and springs.
Public Resource Associates, Nevada
Project manager for a hydrologic analysis of the Walker River Basin to assess the hydraulic
characteristics of surface water and groundwater. Conducted aquifer pumping tests to evaluate
the feasibility of pumping groundwater to supplement the flow to Walker Lake. Constructed a
groundwater simulation model using the computer code FLOWPATH to evaluate the hydraulics
and interconnection of irrigation wells pumping more than 3000 gallons per minute.
Washoe County Utility Division, Nevada
Project manager for a water resource feasibility study to evaluate the potential for groundwater
development in the Reno area. Services included field reconnaissance, aerial photograph
review, fracture trace analysis, hydraulic assessment of groundwater flow through fractured
bedrock, water quality and pumping test data analysis, and preparation of a comprehensive final
report.

Dear Ashley:
I am active with the Groundwater Resources Association of California and have extensive practical
experience in groundwater, surface water, and hydrogeology. I wish to assist the local Groundwater
Sustainability Agencies (GSA) in the development of Groundwater Sustainability Plans (GSP), and
successfully moving forward in Year 2017 in accordance with the Sustainable Groundwater
Management Act (SGMA).
have extensive experience in the following:
• Groundwater and surface water resource management
• Water resource feasibility studies
• Groundwater development and well installation
• Aquifer recharge and monitoring
• Environmental regulatory compliance
I can assist you with preparing Groundwater Sustainability Plans in accordance with the Sustainable
Groundwater Management Act of 2014. Please feel free to contact me to discuss how I can assist
you with SGMA in Year 2017. A summary of my skills, project experience, and education is attached
for your review.
Sincerely,
