HVHF flies WWII, Korean War and Vietnam veterans to Washington DC for the day in which they are taken to each memorial to honor them and their fallen comrades. As part of the organization’s efforts, Jay Kimler, Assistant Chief Surveyor at Tectonic, has been a part of the organization since 2017 as a guardian and flight team leader. “Being part of Honor Flight has changed my life in so many ways. Nothing gives me more joy than to witness firsthand the faces of these courageous men and women as they visit the memorials built in their honor and being celebrated by so many people throughout the day. As the veterans return home most of them say it was the best day of their lives. It’s a humbling experience and one that I treasure dearly.” – Jay Kimler

Tectonic Engineering Consultants, Geologists & Land Surveyors, D.P.C. (Tectonic), a leading multi-discipline engineering firm headquartered in New York’s Hudson Valley, is excited to receive a Gold Award by the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) of New York as part of the 2021 Engineering Excellence Awards program.

Each year, over 60 firms submit projects that are judged on a rigorous set of criteria, which includes complexity, innovation and value to society. The ACEC New York Chapter grants awards in eleven categories.

Tectonic will be honored with a Gold Award in the Water Resources category at the 54th Annual Engineering Excellence Awards Gala, to be held on June 5th, 2021, for services performed for the Upper Candor Dam Rehabilitation project.

Along the Catatonk Creek with a 122 square-mile watershed, the historic Upper Candor Dam was damaged during extreme flooding associated with Tropical Storm Lee in 2011. Faced with the challenge of rehabilitating a dam without adversely impacting the existing unknown and unpredictable structure, Tectonic and the Town of Candor successfully secured federal disaster funding to design, permit and construct an upstream stabilizing structure to control the seepage. The principal goal of preserving the dam structure and the upstream environment was achieved. With the FEMA-funded rehabilitation now complete, the upstream impoundment is used for recreation purposes and is considered an important asset to the town.

The eminent ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Awards program has honored its member firms for over 50 years for work demonstrating the highest degree of skill and ingenuity. These awards help publicize the many significant contributions consulting engineers make to the built environment throughout the world.

Peter T. Sutherland, P.E., P.G., Senior Vice President and Corporate Director of Environmental participated in an interview for an article in the 2020 Spring Issue of the Sullivan County Business Edge. The article focuses on Tectonic’s increasing presence in Sullivan County, NY working with the County government as well as involvement with the Sullivan County Partnership. “The Partnership is really a driving force [for economic growth in Sullivan County],” Sutherland said. “Partnership CEO Marc Baez does a great job advocating for the growth of the County, he is very effective.”

A sampling of projects completed or underway in the County include:

• Environmental services for the NY Main Street Program/Monticello Broadway revitalization in Monticello.
• Environmental services for the Countywide Brownfield Assessment, focusing on reuse and redevelopment of urban centers in Monticello, Liberty, and South Fallsburg.
• Environmental reviews for the Monticello Manor, former hospital, in Monticello.
• Special inspection and materials testing services for Resorts World Catskills Hotel & Casino in Kiamesha Lake.
• Construction inspection and materials testing services for the development of the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts in Bethel.

Additionally, Kelsey Hornicek, a Sullivan County native and dedicated employee in our environmental department, was elected to the Partnership Board of Directors. She actively attends Partnership meetings and functions to keep up-to-date with what is currently happening throughout the County.
