EL PASO, TX — Kimberly LaBree, PE, will receive the Young Engineer of the Year Award from the El Paso Chapter of the Texas Society of Professional Engineers (TSPE). The award recognizes LaBree’s technical ability, professional achievements, and civic and humanitarian involvement.

LaBree is a Project Engineer for PSC in El Paso and is licensed in Texas and New Mexico. She specializes in funding in the Water Resources Sector. She has planned, designed, and modeled over 77 miles of pipelines ranging from small six-figure grants to large multi-million-dollar projects, including the design and management of the Village of Vinton Water and Wastewater Improvement Project.

The County-Wide Master Plan assessed the state of water and wastewater service in El Paso County with a focus on areas not served, and LaBree analyzed information such as existing and future populations, existing and future demands and flows, and distance from existing infrastructure. She identified infrastructure needs and costs, and provided plans to address these needs. A member of TSPE, she is the current President of the American Water Works Association Desert Mountain Chapter.

LaBree chaired a committee to organize events as part of a first-time firm-wide initiative that is an annual day of service in all PSC’s locations. Altogether, 175 volunteers donated time to 14 community programs in 2019. She has made engineering career presentations to area public schools and has also made technical presentations at state conferences.

LaBree received the PSC Rising Star Award in 2017. The award recognizes excellence and achievement made by an emerging professional who is unlicensed or has been licensed for fewer than five years. She was also on the team of the T-Bar project, which won the 2013 Best Projects in Texas & Louisiana Award of Merit. In addition to being recognized as the Young Engineer of the Year on the El Paso level, she will also be nominated for the TSPE award at the state level.

A graduate of the University of Texas at El Paso, she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in civil engineering in 2012.
