    Small Diameter Concrete Gravity Sewer Pipes

    could be cement line ductile iron pipes. However, age of the pipe would give you a clue of what they are. Does the owner have a gis system with that information. I also concur that they could be AC pipes.

    DBA, LLC, Sole-Proprietorship, S-Corporation, or Something Else?

    I went the LLC schedule C route. My wife is a CPA so that helps. I also help her in her accounting business (don't ask). Do not do a S corporation at the start because it cost more to do a tax return. In addition, S corporations limit to 65 shareholders. And for the love of God, do not do a C...

    "Fire the M.B.A.s and let engineers run the show......"

    I can say, an engineer with an MBA is a killer combination. My MBA was the hardest endeavor i've done in my life. Harder than engineering and I come from a 5 year engineering school.

    NCEES: Industrial Exemption/Education Changes

    I have an MS in engineering. Even though it opened doors for me, I do not agree with the decision not to require a MS equivalent to sit for the PE. I benefited from the MS because I did it in an entire different area as my undergraduate degree. Employers will not pay you more for the MS. It...
