Nicole Anderson (she/her/hers)

PhD Candidate
Morgan State University
Baltimore, MD, United States

Nicole Anderson holds both a Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Engineering and a Master’s degree in Civil Engineering-Water Resources from Florida International University. She is currently pursuing her doctorate at Morgan State University, with an anticipated graduation date of fall 2024. Nicole serves as a Program Analyst in the OHMS Division of Risk, Data, and Program Management, where she analyzes data, assesses risk, and conducts in-house studies for the HazMat Safety Program to identify risks and recommend mitigation strategies. Her role involves evaluating models to discern trends, forecast future incidents, and assess the effectiveness of PHMSA’s HazMat programs. Additionally, she coordinates the lithium battery interagency working group, the LNG taskforce, and projects related to nurse tank and anhydrous ammonia applications, lithium batteries, and hydrogen. Nicole also focuses on equity analysis and environmental impacts, leading the Bioremediation of Oil Spill project and The Survivability of Hazmat Placards project while serving as a COR for the Research and Development side.

Prior to her current role, Nicole gained valuable federal experience at NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) as a COR Level 2, where she provided project management support for various building operation and maintenance projects. Her tenure at the Department of Energy, specifically at NETL (National Energy Technology Laboratory) and FERC (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission), equipped her with a robust background in designing water quality controls and conducting simulations for forecasting contamination fate and transport in brownfields and watersheds. At NETL, she conducted research on environmental impacts and risk assessments associated with domestic energy resource development. Her FERC experience involved developing and maintaining computer models of major natural gas company operations and conducting engineering analyses of complex pipeline and LNG certificate proposals related to natural gas sales and transportation.
