BluMetric Announces CEO Appointment

OTTAWA, Feb.20, 2018 /CNW/ - BluMetric Environmental Inc. (TSXV: BLM) is very pleased to announce the appointment of its new Chief Executive Officer, Scott MacFabe, PHg, PG. His starting date will be 01 March 2018.

Scott MacFabe is a strong and experienced executive with an extensive and varied background in environmental consulting in both Canada and the United States. He has been responsible for acquisition integration, and has led sizeable operations that served large clients and provided solutions to complicated environmental challenges. Most recently, Mr. MacFabe worked with an executive management team to reorganize and expand a premier US water/industrial/environmental firm. As part of that expansion, he was responsible for the development of a team which won and successfully executed the single largest design/build remediation project in the history of the firm. Earlier in his career, Mr. MacFabe helped to build an industrial/commercial consultancy firm and grew its sales to $50 million. His company was acquired by a major public multinational environmental consulting firm and he stayed on to assist with integration and to grow their Canadian operations. A Waterloo graduate in hydrogeology, Mr. MacFabe holds both professional hydrogeology and geology accreditations.

"Taking the helm of BluMetric Environmental is both a privilege and a logical and exciting next step in my professional career," said Scott MacFabe. "BluMetric is at an inflection point in its development. With my operational experience, US contacts, and broad range of environmental responsibilities with a wide variety of clients in many different sectors, I look forward to contributing to the efforts of BluMetric's solid senior team to realize significant growth and expansion."

"Scott has the business acumen, industry experience, technical background, and sector understanding to benefit BluMetric as we continue and increase our pace of growth," said Jane Pagel, who chairs BluMetric's Board. "As well as being both a hydrogeologist and a geologist, over the past 30 years Scott has facilitated sales turnarounds, reorganizations, diversification, acquisitions, and corporate integrations in the companies he has worked with, so he is very familiar with a fast-paced and flexible environment such as BluMetric's. We are very pleased to have him join our team."
