| Dr. Addley has 34 years of hydropower-specific experience researching and analyzing aquatic habitats and aquatic ecosystems related to hydropower and water resource project operations on over 100 different rivers and/or estuaries. His expertise includes FERC hydropower operations, Instream Flow assessment of rivers, and water management operations that provide water resource benefits for people and aquatic ecosystems. He has the unique capability to integrate the engineering components of projects, environmental constraints, and diverse stakeholder groups and develop trust-based water resource solutions.
He has been responsible for overseeing large multidisciplinary water projects and the development, testing, and validation of aquatic habitat impact analyses. These projects include multidisciplinary approaches to instream flows, ecohydraulics, water temperature modeling, water quality, river and reservoir fish populations, amphibians, macroinvertebrates, fish passage, aquatic species entrainment, ramping rates, altered/constructed habitat, flow regimes for riparian communities, threatened and endangered species, species reintroduction, sediment transport and geomorphology, and riverine fish bioenergetics with linkages to high-resolution hydrology operations models and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). |
Craig holds a B.S., Fisheries and Wildlife, Emphasis in Fisheries and Aquatic Ecology, M.S., Civil and Environmental Engineering, and a Ph.D, in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the Utah State University.
