A 1976 graduate of Cal Poly with a B.S. in Horticulture and Biology, Larry's business focus shifted from horticultural to water development upon arriving in Mendocino County in 1980. It was apparent that water was the first step in property development; either water needed to be found, the water source that did exist needed to be develop adequately, or the water needed purification. Mastering the art of dowsing led to a quantum leap in Larry's ability to locate and develop water. With dowsing, the source of water that was feeding the spring could be determined, allowing for effective development of springs utilizing horizontal drilling. As well, locating well sites for vertical drilling proved very successful. Water purity also needed to be evaluated and utilizing alternative methods to purify water was a natural augmentation to water development. This lead Larry to the field of aquatic management incorporating all aspects of water purification, biology and horticulture.

For the past twenty years Mendocino Waterworks has provided services to the State of California and the Regional Park Systems, as well as residential, commercial, and agricultural clients.
