Milon Meyer, has over thirty-seven years of seasoned and diversified experience. He has a wide range of experience in solving engineering problems for operating nuclear power plants, turbomachinery, aircraft, and related structures using computerized or manual approaches. Working as a consultant, he has been assigned project responsibility requiring a variety of engineering structural, fluid-mechanical, and heat transfer solutions. Recently, Mr. Meyer assisted DOE's Office of Safety Regulation (OSR) within U.S. Dept of Energy Office of River Protection (ORP) to perform review of low-activity waste (LAW), high-level waste (HLW), and pretreatment waste (PT) facilities. Review required knowledge of Regulatory Criteria and verification that hazards were identifed, accidents analyzed, and applicable standards implemented. As an expert, Mr. Meyer has demonstrated technical experience interfacing with DOE, DOE/RL, DNFSB, and related DOE contractors.    milon (at) mdpsi.com   x231
