From the transcript

Thank you. My name is Frank Rast. I'm a retired civil engineer. Mark Primo hired me 43 years ago to come to Alaska. He was my friend and mentor, and I can't— I could tell you an hour what I learned from Mark, but through Mark, I was involved in the Klutna Pipeline Phase 3 project, the Klutna Water Treatment Plant, the Ship Creek Water Treatment Plant expansion, reservoirs.
