LMS consists of environmental professionals who are dedicated to finding innovative solutions to leachate and industrial wastewater and are recognized as national and international experts in the use of natural treatment systems. We are committed to providing top quality consulting and engineering services for our clients with each stage of a project, including site assessment, permitting, design and fabrication, installation, operation, and maintenance.
Brad Granley, P.E., President & Founder
Brad is a licensed professional engineer and the founder and president of LMS. He has 30 years of engineering and project management experience ranging from the cleanup of complex contaminated soil and groundwater sites to industrial wastewater and landfill treatment. He has led numerous efforts to bring developing technologies to industry, bridging the gap between research and application to solve actual problems. Brad has helped change the way the solid waste industry looks at managing leachate by helping to develop and implement novel on-site treatment and disposal technologies. His project and professional achievements include saving clients millions of dollars, reducing the carbon footprint of facilities, leading mulitple National Engineering Excellence award-winning projects, speaking at national and state technical conferences, being named a “Community Changemaker” by the National Waste and Recycling Association, and winning a 2022 Innovators Award from MSW Management Magazine for his role in the solid waste industry.
Richard Stoor, P.E., Vice President / Director of Engineering and Field Services
Ric is a licensed professional engineer with 22 years of experience in the solid waste and remediation engineering fields. He oversees engineering and operation of nature-based systems and leads demonstrations and treatability tests for PFAS removal using foam fractionation. He specializes in the design, installation, and operation of complex and innovative systems for the treatment and disposal of wastewaters and contaminated groundwater. He excels at field engineering and troubleshooting activities, with the ability to adapt on short notice to the variability typical of field work. Ric has completed many permitting projects (NPDES, POTW, air discharge, solid waste) and risk evaluations, designed and implemented pilot test procedures, and has prepared specifications, plans, and bidding documents for successful system installations. He also is very adept at managing projects through effective communication and planning, and he understands that the true success or failure of a system over time is directly related to the completion of proper O&M activities. This approach minimizes disruptions to system operations and maximizes savings over the life of a project.
Ryan March, Vice President of Innovation and Expansion
Ryan’s mission is to make landfill and wastewater operations better, and he has the determination and ability to make that happen. He has built a career developing companies and technologies with a focus on sustainability and improved performance. His client cost savings over 22 years have resulted in more than a billion dollars for operational and maintenance improvements. His FlowScience Advanced Liquids Treatment Technologies benefit carbonite and leachate scale formations on pipes and surfaces through electromagnetic, vibrative pulse that doesn’t allow hard calcium deposits to form. Predictable results and guaranteed. The technology also solves the new sticky problem known as black goo.
He is now excited to be a part of the LMS team to help expand the use of green technologies in the solid waste industry to simply “Do Leachate Better!” Whether your goals are to manage PFAS, lower costs, prevent being cut off from a WWTP, or just reduce your carbon footprint, Ryan has an uncanny ability to help clients work through their site-specific issues and find the most innovative and cost-effective solution for their needs.
Aaron Gilman, Vice President of Client Solutions
Aaron Gilman has been enticed out of retirement to join LMS where he will help make a difference in the solid waste industry by bringing sustainable and cost-effective solutions to landfills across the country. Although he had fun opening and operating a brewery in Virginia, skiing across the country, and volunteering in numerous capacities in his community, his passion is solving problems in solid waste and LMS is ecstatic to have him on our team.
With over three decades of landfill/environmental pollution control and remediation experience, Aaron stands out as a seasoned professional in landfill facility construction, operations, and repair. He is a veteran that served as an aircraft mechanic while in the Air Force. His years of landfill experience prepared him to handle nearly any landfill issues including leachate infrastructure construction, major overhaul/repair projects, and gas collection systems. His expertise extends to solid waste facility permitting, construction, operations, and he has developed numerous landfill odor control projects. His experience with polyethylene (PE) pipe fusion, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe installation, and the setup of condensate/leachate containment and collection facilities provides years of solutions and problem solving for the landfill industry. Aaron’s hands-on approach in project estimation and execution demonstrates his commitment to creating cost-effective and sustainable solutions.
Eric Wiediger, Senior Project Manager
Eric has 20 years of experience in private and public sectors related to solid waste, leachate, and environmental projects. He manages innovative technologies including plant-based treatment and disposal systems, enhanced wind evaporation for wastewater, and PFAS removal using foam fractionation. Nature-based systems require a unique set of skills and knowledge, and whether he’s digging in the soil to assess agronomic health, maintaining equipment and piping, or back in the office writing a report, Eric’s dedication and flexibility has kept our systems operating well and projects successful. His attention to detail and analytical reasoning help projects excel at every stage, from feasibility evaluations to performance trends. Eric started off his environmental career as a Peace Corps volunteer in Mongolia, then became specialized in solid waste permitting and regulatory compliance over 8 years with the PA DEP, leading hundreds of inspections and investigations, and eventually overseeing the enforcement division. He also holds a master’s degree in Public Health and a master’s certificate in Agronomy.
John Krinis, Managing Member
John has over 17 years of project management and small business experience. In 2011, he co-founded an environmental consulting and engineering firm where his contributions effectively led to the rapid expansion and consistent growth of the company and eventually a successful merger in 2017. As the Chief Operating Officer, John supervised the daily business direction and overall functions performed by staff. He also designed, fabricated, and installed equipment for treatment systems, as well as completed environmental due diligence and sampling activities. John has also served as a Health and Safety Superintendent for construction and clean-up projects, including the World Trade Center site, and holds a master’s degree in business administration. John’s leadership and management traits have proven effective in business development and company growth.
