Dustin A. Lanci, B.S.

Staff Geophysicist

Experience:

Mr. Lanci joined Earth Dynamics in the fall of 2007 as a staff geophysicist. His primary duties include data acquisition and reduction for geophysical exploration projects and data reduction and analysis for several ongoing vibration monitoring projects. Specific recent projects include pressurized sewer locate and air/vac potholing for the City of Portland; collecting more than 24,000 lineal feet of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) data to detect buried utilities at Waterfront Park in Portland, OR; multi-electrode resistivity profiling to help determine subsurface geology at the Oregon School of Art and Craft in Portland, OR; and vibration monitoring during pipe bursting and construction activities for Clean Water Services in Washington County, OR.

Upon receiving his Bachelor of Science degree in Geophysical Engineering from the Colorado School of Mines (CSM), Mr. Lanci began work with Zonge Geosciences, Inc. as a field geophysicist. While at Zonge, Mr. Lanci conducted a wide range of engineering and environmental geophysics projects including over 15,000 lineal feet of two-dimensional electrical resistivity profiling along US-412 near Woodward, OK to locate voids; EM and Magnetometer surveys in Denver, CO to locate buried underground storage tanks; seismic refraction and Refraction Microtremor (ReMi) surveys to locate depth to bedrock and rippability at Winter Park Ski Resort, CO; and Cross-hole Seismic tests at Red Rock Power Plant near Stillwater, OK to determine shear-wave velocities.

While a student at the CSM, Mr. Lanci worked as a geophysical technician for Olson Engineering, Inc. At Olson Engineering, Mr. Lanci gained experience using Cross-hole Sonic Logging (CSL) and Sonic Echo/Impulse Response to determine depth and structural integrity of bridge and building piers and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to locate embedded features, such as rebar and post-tension cables, within concrete slabs.
