April 6 press release by our local newspaper. Nice general shout out to the community letting them know what we’re doing. Not technically sound on all fronts but meant to focus on local businesses contributing to the community in some significant way. Educational and environmental outreach programs are a big part of what we like to do locally to be involved.

Jeff Gardner was given the opportunity to speak to one of the Central Connecticut State University geology classes taught by Dr. Jennifer Piatek (COVID protocols in effect). He talked about the types of surveys that are performed in support of offshore wind development and other industries, how the students may be able to pursue a path toward a marine geology career, and immediate options available to them in the work force upon graduating with a Bachelor’s degree.  Students and a number of professors attended in-person at the school, with online attendance reaching other area universities such as Wesleyan. Giving back to the community by offering our knowledge and experience to local students is an important part of our company outreach.

Organized by the younger crowd at our Middletown, CT office, with no prodding from older staff :), Geo SubSea personnel descended on a really nice stream side property in Middletown to help get rid of trash discarded by passing motorists. Group included Liz Spielman, Brett Young, Zoemma Warshafsky, Jeff Gardner and wife Laurie. We loaded up the bed of Jeff’s Tacoma until it was overflowing and took it to the Haddam transfer station the next day, recycling as much as possible. Appreciative of everyone’s effort and willingness to go out and perform community support after work hours. Thank you all!!

The Source to Sea Cleanup; another year clearing debris from the banks of the Connecticut River! While it is unfortunate that all this trash continues to invade our waterways, it is an event that our company enjoys. Getting outside and doing something positive for the environment. We certainly need to reduce our use of plastics! Geo SubSea continues to support the community in a variety of ways.

The Geo SubSea team is serving as the geophysical contract and survey manager for the latest procurement and field campaign in New York Bight at the WEA study areas. Data is being acquired for future developers that will lease the final areas identified by BOEM. Interesting region where there is a confluence of abundant maritime activity and unique environmental factors. Challenging conditions that our experts are used to dealing with. Glad to be assisting future developers and the agencies trying to push the industry forward.
