   personal_statement: Gerard began his career in 1989 as a hydrologist with the
     U.S. Geological Survey in Little Rock, Arkansas working mainly on surface-water/groundwater
     interactions within a bottomland hardwood wetland in the Mississippi Alluvial
     Plain of eastern Arkansas. By 1994, he served as the groundwater specialist
     for the Mississippi Embayment National Water Quality Assessment (NAWQA) program,
     focusing on the water quality in the Tertiary aquifers, Mississippi Alluvial
     aquifer, and the shallow aquifer system in the Memphis metro area.Gerard transferred
     to the Georgia District in Norcross, Georgia in 1999 where he worked with a
     team assessing a contaminated site at Air Force Plant 6 near Marietta, Georgia.
     It is then that he operated a continuous-recorder network of about 50 wells
     around the site, performed slug tests, and an aquifer test within fractured-crystalline
     rock. By 2010 Gerard was interpreting results from several constant-discharge
     aquifer tests performed in the Cretaceous or Floridan aquifer systems, using
     analytical methods and axis-symmetric groundwater models. Gerard has also interpreted
     flow-meter survey data for Waynesboro, Georgia; and Wake County, North Carolina;
     and interpreted data from slug tests performed in Wake County, North Carolina.Gerard
     is currently program chief for the assessment of groundwater resources in Richmond
     County working in cooperation with Augusta Utilities.  The project annually
     monitors water levels throughout the county and water quality in several of
     the production wells within the area.  The data are compiled and interpreted
     to determine the state of the groundwater for the study area which includes
     assessing trends through time.  Gerard is also performing a census of public
     supply wells throughout Georgia, verifying the location and construction information,
     and determining from which aquifer the wells withdraw water.
