Yesterday Peter Mulvaney came to speak to us about Chicago’s sewer system. He hit all the major points from our privileged status as Chicagoans, to the big tunnel project, and storm water management.
As Assistant Commissioner at the Chicago Department of Water Management, Peter Mulvaney has been committed to enhancing the stewardship of Chicago’s water resources and to create and capitalize on “greener” facility planning. His career started as a field biologist in New Mexico, which led to his interest in the interaction of environment and human activities. Peter then pursued these interests as a scientist at the National Institutes of Health, and later as an environmental consultant at a premiere water resources and engineering firm.
Peter has a BA in Psychology from the University of Colorado, and he won the Kappe Environmental Fellowship from The Pennsylvania State University to earn his MS in Pollution Control Engineering and later earned his MBA from the Kellogg School of Management. Peter has been LEED accredited since 2002.
