Water Quality Control

Water sells property. It provides an aesthetically pleasing and relaxing atmosphere for people. Yet through man induced actions, water can acquire a myriad of problems, usually associated with poor design, runoff, sedimentation, and lack of or improper management.

Physicochemical studies are performed through water quality monitoring and research to survey physical and chemical parameters using analytic techniques derived from the latest edition of Standard Methods and EPA water quality manuals and guidelines. We continually refine analytical techniques through use of the finest commercially available state-of-the-art equipment.

Johnny Lee

Johnny Lee

Vice President of Operations

Johnny learned very early on that a desk job was not for him. He dreamed of something more while sitting in a cubicle working in call centers and tech support roles. That’s when he decided to leap into the world of events. While working at the largest Marriott in the world, he got his first taste of the industry and loved it. Shortly after, he started freelancing as an audio-visual technician, and over the next few years, he mastered various roles in the AV industry. Traveling to events across the US, solving client challenges, and feeling the excitement of a high-pressure live event are all what light Johnny up.

Passion / Family / Heart

  • Won a week-long cruise on the Royal Caribbean Oasis with his poker skills.
  • Has a beautiful baby girl, who was born at 26 weeks
  • Grew up around animals all his life

Chris Gerhart


President

Chris grew up in the events industry. The first working event he ever attended was when he was 5. Amazed by the lighting, the excitement of being behind the scenes, and how the event seemed to impact everyone who attended, he knew this would be his world. At 14, he began working in his Father’s audio-visual company’s warehouse. And there he stayed, working every summer through college (where he even missed writing finals to work on a show). By 2013, Chris was a leading expert in the audio-visual industry. At this time, he decided to buy and take over the business. Since then, he’s built Crescent into the success it is today, with 96% of his customers becoming repeat customers.

Passion / Family / Heart

  • Would live on a boat if he could
  • Avid football player. Received Honourable Mention, All-Conference in High School and College
  • There’s nothing he’d rather do than be with his kids (bonus if it’s on a boat)
