About AEON
Water Disciplines: AEON’S water resource services include spring water and municipal source water evaluation,
water budgets and reserve & recharge area estimation, drought contingency planning,
constructed wetland hydraulics design, and construction inspection.
In addition, AEON provides evaluation of water quality & chemistry
for remedial groundwater designs, including creative and beneficial use of acid mine water.
Engineering Geology: AEON’S engineering geology disciplines encompass aerial photograph/remote sensing evaluation for geological hazards (landslides, slope stability, mine subsidence, karst-sinkholes), grouting programs for both karst and mining subsidence, geology & hydrogeology support for geotechnical engineering and foundation studies, and rock and soil slope stability evaluation.
Additionally, AEON has developed cooperative partnerships with several other highly
experienced professional experts in contiguous and overlapping disciplines
(e.g., Geochemistry, Statistics & Wetlands & permitting expertise).
Collaborative teams can be assembled to address the specific needs of all clients.
Gary Kribbs, President, has over twenty years of experience directing and implementing a widerange of geologic, hydrogeologic, engineering geology and environmental investigations and providing leadership and guidance for teams of professionals and
technicians in the geoscience and engineering disciplines. His technical responsibilities have included developing and
conducting geologic, hydrogeologic (water supply, remediation design and construction)
and geotechnical surface and subsurface investigations.
Gary has successfully completed and cost-effectively managed dozens of projects ranging in budget from s several thousand to several hundred thousand dollars. His geological exploration investigations exceed 55,000 lineal feet of geotechnical and
water well drilling with inspection, logging and interpretation. Over the past twenty years, he has managed
numerous consultant teams and interacted closely with public sector and private corporate clients.
