About

Lyle Mariam, P.E., C.S.E.

Over twenty years ago, I transitioned to the potable water industry after working as a control systems engineer and software developer in the chemical, petrochemical, semiconductor, and power sectors.

Working in Asset Management for one of the largest municipal water system agencies in the United States, I have leveraged my previous experience to enhance pump performance analysis and energy conservation methods, develop cost-effective Trihalomethane (THM) mitigation systems, improve control valve operations, and reduce main breaks by optimizing pump operations to minimize harmful pressure transients (water hammer).
