    Get to Know OOWA’s Members: Kathryn Stasiuk

    11 Jan 2018 / Comments Off / in 2018, Meet our Members, OOWA News/by Mike Gibbs

    Kathryn Stasiuk, EIT, WSP Canada

    What got you started in the onsite and decentralized wastewater industry? 

    I completed my undergrad in Water Resources Engineering at the University of Guelph and was originally introduced to the industry through a co-op program.  I completed an 8-month co-op placement with the WSP Aurora office and have been involved ever since. The onsite sewage industry interested me initially due to the troubling statistic that 2.5 billion people in the world do not have adequate access to sanitation. I’ve also grown to understand the local human health and environmental significance here in Ontario. Read more →

    What got you started in the onsite wastewater industry?

    After quitting the dairy farm in 1982, I got into excavation by buying a used backhoe, small dozer and a gravel truck. We did excavation work like removing stone fences, ditching and selling mixed topsoil. We started getting requests to install septic systems and as I was not licensed at the time, I would install it with a licensed plumber. I got my license to install septic systems in 1987.

    What got you started in the onsite wastewater industry? 

    Back in the early 90’s, I pursued a Master’s degree in Chemical Engineering in wastewater treatment process at the École Polytechnique de Montréal. My thesis subject focused on modeling the hydrodynamic properties of a peat filter-based media bed. This research project was funded, among others, by “Tourbière Premier”, which is known today as Premier Tech Aqua.
