Trotter and Associates, Inc., is exhibiting at the IWPC Conference in East Peoria, where Illinois water experts connect, share, and move the industry forward. Scott Trotter, P.E., and Jerry Ruth, P.E., are representing TAI at the conference. We are also proud to have Jerry on the IWEA Executive Board, enabling him to support the industry beyond his project work and reflecting TAI’s commitment to community collaboration for sustainable infrastructure solutions.

Scott Trotter, P.E., BCEE, and Eric Davenport attended the WRWA Annual Technical Conference in Green Bay, WI, this week. The conference workshops provided an opportunity for updates and conversations about the future of water and wastewater! On the exhibit floor, they connected with clients and partners, including Jon Baumann from the Village of Sussex. TAI is partnering with the Village of Sussex on the WPCF Improvements Project to modernize key wastewater systems.

Chase earned his B.S. in Environmental Engineering from UW–Platteville and passed the FE exam right after graduation, earning his Engineer in Training (E.I.T.) certification. He also brings two years of environmental field experience, supporting on-site soil monitoring with a PID, SDA sampling, groundwater testing, and CCDD reporting knowledge. His strong academic preparation, professional drive, and hands-on field background position him well as he begins his engineering career at Trotter and Associates, Inc.  Please join us in welcoming Chase to the Trotter Team! We look forward to the steady impact he will have on our projects and the communities we serve.

Last summer, Sam Severson participated in Trotter and Associates, Inc.’s internship program. In January, he came back as a full-time Staff Engineer.  A graduate of UW–Platteville, Sam passed the FE exam and earned his Engineer in Training (E.I.T.) designation — an important professional milestone early in his engineering career. Through several internships, including at WisDOT’s Railroad Division and here at TAI, he gained valuable hands-on experience supporting roadway and infrastructure projects, construction observation, underground utilities, and field coordination. We’re proud to see strong internship experiences develop into meaningful careers at TAI — and we’re confident Sam is just getting started. Join us in officially welcoming this great addition to the TAI Team!
