MTBE Remediation Handbook Front Cover

MTBE Remediation Handbook 

The MTBE Remediation Handbook is an industry go-to reference for assessing and remediating soil and groundwater contaminated by the controversial gasoline additive MTBE. Moyer co-edited this 670-page book, authored two chapters, and co-authored a third. As project lead and manager, Moyer developed the structure, assigned authors for each chapter, disseminated editorial guidelines, reviewed drafts, and edited final submittals to create a coordinated and cohesive book. Contributors included 50 professionals from the industrial, consulting, academic, and regulatory communities. The MTBE Remediation Handbook is widely recognized for its comprehensiveness, utility, and quality; the United States Environmental Protection Agency purchased 125 copies to distribute to Leaking Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund managers and others in all 50 states. The peer-reviewed journal Ground Water reported that the book “should be in all environmental professionals’ libraries.”

Leak Detection Book

Economics of Leak Detection
A Case Study Approach

Originally Moyer’s master’s thesis, was subsequently published as a book by the American Water Works Association. The book quantifies the costs and benefits of conserving water by finding and fixing leaks in piping and fittings in water-distribution systems. Moyer’s analysis showed that this practice is cost-effective even for water utilities that have low costs for obtaining, treating, and conveying water.
