    With skills as diverse as project management, design, reporting, purchasing, construction oversight and project schedule coordination, Kerrie L. Greenfelder has worked on projects for CDM Smith that are groundbreaking in their scope and approach. Trained as a chemical engineer, she has worked on projects that feature chemical coagulation with granular media filtration for the removal of arsenic from drinking water. She was on the forefront of sustainable practices for two municipal water reclamation projects in Rio Rancho, N.M., representing the first significant water-treatment facilities in that state to use the relatively new membrane bioreactor technology. She also was the project manager and engineer on the design of a wastewater treatment plant improvement project for Hobbs, N.M., and provided engineering services through the liquid-train and solids-train construction phases.

    Outside of the office, Greenfelder is passionate about the Society of Women Engineers, where she has served as Sonora-region governor.
