Happy New Year! 

AESI celebrated its 25th Anniversary last year and looks forward to a great 2008.  We were excited to announce the opening of our Tacoma branch office, which opened its doors last June.  The Tacoma office is managed by Maire Thornton, Senior Engineer. 

AESI’s strong commitment to provide in-house professional development and continuing education to their staff manifested itself in the first of hopefully many AESI seminars at the Redhook Brewery on June 1, 2007.  This seminar titled “Quaternary Geology of the Central Puget Sound Lowland” was presented by UW’s Kathy Troost and Derek Booth.  The next day AESI staff and family went on the 10th annual Whidbey Island Field Trip led by Curtis Koger to take a firsthand look at the various sediments and faults exposed in the bluffs along the south end of the island.
