In conjunction with his current position, he has accrued 12 years of experience in areas related to water quantity and quality regulatory policy, surface water hydrology, water quality monitoring, surface and groundwater numeric modeling, and GIS. Mr. Freihoefer obtained his B.S. (Hydrogeology) and M.S. (Water Resources) degrees from the University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point. His M.S. degree research improved approaches to calibrate watershed-scale process models for simulating hydrology, sediment,and nutrient transport with field-scale monitoring data. Mr. Freihoefer previously served as a water quality modeler for the WDNR’s Bureau of Water Quality where he coordinated and implemented the technical aspects of water quality analysis and numeric modeling for the successful development of watershed improvement projects throughout Wisconsin.
