Welcome to the team at RMI!
Chris Thomson joined the RMI team in November as the newest addition to our Operations department as the Operations Assistant. In this role, Chris is in charge of the daily dispatch of the company’s truck fleet. Chris schedules generator pickups and end user delivers and any other problem that is thrown his way. He is resilient and smart and quickly got the nickname of “Turnip” because they can survive and strive in the toughest of circumstances. Prior to joining RMI Chris served in the military and then spent time as a cross-country truck driver.
Eryka Reid came on board in March as the new part-time Administrative Assistant but is now the full-time Compliance and Marketing Assistant. In these roles Eryka builds maps for all of end user sites and coordinates tradeshows and conferences for the sales team. She is also responsible for maintaining our website and social media sites. Eryka graduated from Plymouth State University with a B.S. in Environmental Science and spent the last year working for Keepsake Quilting, which is a worldwide quilting company. With a science degree and some marketing experience Eryka was a good fit for what RMI needed.
Matt Nelson is also one of the company’s newest employees having come on board in the beginning of June. Matt has joined our Delivery Team focused on operating the company’s roll-off truck. Matt’s experience ranges from operating the tractor trailer at Lowes to working previously for Caselle.

Rensselaer County Sewer District Upgrades Biosolids System
After almost four decades the Rensselaer Country Sewer District (RCSD) wasterwater treatment plant (WWTP) was interested in upgrading its biosolids process system. RCSD conducted a biosolids alternative analysis, and selected a method that had the lowest lifecycle cost but also generated a beneficially useful biosolid product.
With the new process underway RCSD developed a marketing plan to help identify outlets for the dried product. Hoping for a “turn-key” partnership, in which the partner would take responsibility for the dried products from the loading facility to outlets, that is where RMI comes in!
