Mr. Tyler has been the Project/Program Manager at the Deer Island facility for nearly twenty years.

He has done an outstanding job over the years. Mr. Tyler is a past President and active contributing member of the New England Water Environment Association, as well as a past Director and President of the Massachusetts Water Pollution Control Association.

The E.P.A.

Many wastewater professionals throughout New England were instrumental in Mr. Tyler's nomination.

"The professionals operating these wastewater treatment plants, as well as the municipalities and the state environmental agencies that support them, are essential to keeping our environment healthy by protecting water quality. I am proud to give them the credit they deserve," said Curt Spalding, regional administrator of EPA's New England Office.
