OTTAWA, Nov. 30, 2017 /CNW/ - BluMetric
Environmental Inc. (TSXV: BLM) is pleased to announce that it has
appointed Mr. Dan Scroggins,
currently serving as BluMetric's Senior Vice President, Research
& Innovation, as interim CEO of the Company, subject to TSX-V
approval. His appointment is effective immediately upon the close
of Roger Woeller's term as CEO on
November 30, 2017, as previously
reported (press release dated 31 October 2017). Roger Woeller
will continue to be a director of the Company and assist with
succession planning and ongoing search for a permanent CEO (first
announced 23 May 2017).
Dan Scroggins has 35 years of
experience in the water and wastewater treatment field, having
participated in hundreds of projects around the globe, serving for
many years in senior client-facing and technology implementation
roles. An innovator in his field, he has been involved in almost
every aspect of the business, from the formation of several
companies to the creation of a national sales organization, the
development and introduction of new products to a national market,
and the consolidation of several companies into one integrated
entity. His management experience includes taking a small
entrepreneurial company from its inception to IPO on NASDAQ. At
BluMetric, along with his research responsibilities, he was key in
streamlining the operation and increasing the profitability of
Water Systems by focusing on strengths, reducing costs, and
expanding the product offering. Dan has a solid understanding
of the industry, exceptional interpersonal skills and a depth of
scientific knowledge.
"Through the challenges and changes of the past several years,
BluMetric's senior management team has responded consistently,
proving itself both strong and capable and well able to support the
Company's business," said Jane E.

appointment of Dan Scroggins as
interim CEO and have every confidence in the senior management team
to continue to move the Company forward during this transition
period. At the same time, the Company is thankful for Roger's
past leadership, and fortunate to have his ongoing input and
support on the Board as we strengthen the foundation for future
growth."
