"I recently engaged Metis to assess the contribution of 13 pump stations to the contaminant load entering a vulnerable estuary in our region, and to consider options that might improve water quality in the discharge and receiving environment. Michael has been extraordinarily responsive and provided high quality outputs promptly and at a very reasonable cost. We have chosen to increase the scope of his work with us."
