Tom Dance has more than 35 years of professional experience as a hydrogeologist (both physical and contaminant or chemical hydrogeology). Most of his professional career has been spent working in Western Canada and he is familiar with the geologic and hydrogeologic conditions within the Western Canada sedimentary basin from the Cambrian through to the Quaternary and Recent geologic ages and throughout British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, the Northwest Territories and the Yukon.

As a senior consultant and principal consultant for three consulting firms, Tom has a broad range of management experience and leadership skills developed on projects ranging from a few thousand to many hundreds of thousands of dollars in scope and within the regulatory requirements that apply to the petroleum exploration and production, petrochemical, mining and water resources industries.

Since entering partial retirement, Tom has assisted several organizations on a part time basis with expert advice on geology, hydrogeology and contaminant hydrology either for siting of engineered facilities, water resource development, management of storm water, groundwater remediation or development of compliance water quality monitoring programs.
