Derek Tomlinson was recently posthumously awarded an Association for Environmental Health and Sciences (AEHS) Foundation Achievement Award. Each year the award goes to individuals or organizations who have made significant contributions to the understanding and solution of soil, sediment, and groundwater pollution problems. Derek was honored for his dedication to the environmental community and his desire to spread his knowledge to others. Derek’s expertise, personality, and desire to teach others will be missed by colleagues and friends at GEI and throughout the environmental community, and he will be remembered through this Foundation Achievement Award.  The award ceremony will be held at the AEHS Conference in Amherst, Massachusetts on October 17, 2018.
