  The Greater Baltimore Chapter of ASCET
Monthly Meeting Announcement

for:

  Tuesday, April 19th, 2016


IMPORTANT NOTE: We have developed our first chapter website. This will now be our main “hub” for majority of our correspondence as well as processing all payments. The website has the capability for members to sign up and pay for yearly membership as well as the May Dinner Meeting. Please check out our new site and let us know what you think!


Thank you all for attending last month’s meeting with Brandon Telford from Reliable.  Please join us and welcome Dr. Jason Sutula from JENSEN HUGHES who is this month’s meeting sponsor and also presenting the topic of Inspections, Testing, and Maintenance.

Dr. Sutula graduated from the University of Maryland in 1997 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Fire Protection Engineering. In 1998, he received his Master of Science degree in Fire Protection Engineering again from the University of Maryland. In 2009, Dr. Sutula completed a Doctor of Philosophy degree from the Graduate School of Engineering and Electronics at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. Over the past seventeen years, Dr. Sutula has applied his knowledge and experience in fire science, fire protection engineering, and fire and explosion investigations to solve problems for government agencies, major corporate clients, and law firms. Dr. Sutula will be exposing us to a common ground that he has seen across many of his fire investigations; the lack of inspections, testing, and maintenance.


Meetings are held at:
The Green Turtle:  7556 Teague Rd. | Suite 100 | Hanover, MD 21076 | (410) 799-5001

Members are encouraged to show up earlier if they wish; please gather in the bar area for the social time.  This will allow us to prepare the reserved room for the presenter and the buffet.  It is not our chapter’s intention to have the sponsors pick up the bar tabs, so please purchase those on you own.
