Krooskos and Associates, Chief Engineering Geologist Professional OrganizationsAssociation of Environmental and Engineering Geologists, Southern California SectionGeological Society of America San Diego Association of Geologists South Coast Geological Society Inland Geological Society Representative ExperienceMr. Hart has over 30 years of professional experience in the field of engineering geology. He has studied landslides internationally, participating in field workshops on landslides in Mexico, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Austria, Switzerland, and Italy. His clients have included geotechnical firms, developers, and governmental agencies. His engineering geologic specialties are bedrock landsliding in both crystalline and sedimentary rock, and evaluation of fault hazards. Projects involving landslide hazard evaluations include numerous commercial and residential projects in San Diego, Riverside, Orange, and Imperial Counties.He has served as reviewer for engineering geology reports submitted to the City of Santee, San Diego, Draper City Utah, and Coachella, California. His primary task for peer reviews involved the determination of whether engineering geologic and geotechnical reports submitted to the governmental agencies met established city and state guidelines and were performed to current professional standards. Mr. Hart has also recently performed fault investigations for many projects in San Diego and Riverside Counties including the following sites: an investigation for San Diego City College Library near the intersection of 13th and C Streets; Ralph’s Market at 1st and Market Street; and three multi-family residential sites located in the vicinity of 1st and Market Streets. Recently completed fault investigations or foundation monitoring projects for high-rise structures in the downtown San Diego area include the residential towers for Bosa Development on Pacific Highway, Sapphire Tower at Kettner and A, and One Library Tower on the corner of 12th and K Street. Mr. Hart has also provided consulting services for a mega-block development between 16th and 17th Street north of G Street as well as numerous smaller commercial developments in the City of San Diego Special Fault Hazard Zone.
