Henry Wise is a graduate of Boston University with a Bachelor’s degree in geology and a Master’s degree in geology from the University of Texas at El Paso. He has more than 45 years of professional experience in geological and environmental remediation. This includes substantial in exploration and production of uranium in Texas and in ground-water assessment and remediation projects in Texas and the eastern United States.
Mr. Wise worked for US Steel exploring for South Texas roll-front uranium deposits and production of South Texas roll-front uranium deposits. He was responsible for developing the Pawlik mine for US Steel and periodically worked on all six US Steel South Texas uranium mines.
Cambridge Royalty Company employed Mr. Wise to explore for uranium in Texas based on a show of uranium in an oil well they owned. Mr. Wise identified a deep uranium deposit of significance in the area before Cambridge Royalty ceased uranium exploration and development due to a depression in the uranium market. Cambridge Royalty was eventually purchased by Global Natural Resources, who put zero value on their uranium interests.
After Cambridge Royalty, Mr. Wise served a number of environmental companies, including Parsons Engineering Science and Republic Services. Mr. Wise was responsible for site assessments and remediation at these companies and has extensive experience with interfacing with State and Federal environmental agencies, including the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Mr. Wise has worked on RCRA, Superfund, and underground storage tank sites for many clients.
