NEWS OF INTEREST
Dunkelberger's latest State P.E.
Dunkelberger adds another FL P.E. to its roster ... Mahalingam “Bahi” Bahiradhan, P.E. has served Dunkelberger in the Geotechnical Department for the last year and a half. He specializes in roadway soil surveys, bridge foundations, utilities, retaining walls, single and multi-story commercial and public buildings. Bahi recently became a State of Florida registered professional engineer (P.E.) through reciprocity. He was originally licensed in Washington state. Company-wide, the firm has eleven P.E.'s.
The luck of the draw ... Each year Nova Southeastern University (NSU) sponsors a golf tournament that provides 100% of the proceeds to the student-scholarships at the University. Dunkelberger showed our support by participating in the fundraising efforts as a Corporate Sponsor including purchasing raffle tickets for a Harley Davidson Motorcycle. As luck has it, the firm won the Harley!!! But don’t expect to see Mike O’Connor or Tom Tepper clad in leather, cruising down 95 anytime soon … The bike will be sold and the proceeds will be distributed to local charities and internally for employee welfare.
