The new company - Lyman Henn Inc. - is owned and managed by Principals Tracy Lyman and Ray Henn, and Associates Steve Kuehr and Peggy Ganse. They have nine additional staff as well.

The transfer occurred on March 15, 2003. As a result, Lyman Henn has assumed all Denver-based contract work previously performed by Haley & Aldrich. The two firms anticipate ongoing collaborative efforts to continue to serve their clients.

Lyman Henn will concentrate on geotechnical, tunneling and construction services and continue to build on more than 15 years of continuous practice from the Denver location.
