When facing site environmental or building issues, we are here to swiftly clear your path to successful construction

Guides on your path toward mitigation, compliance, and permitting

Once you’ve chosen a site, the focus shifts to compliance and project constructability. Our environmental experts bring local relationships and knowledge of regulations at all levels to help you navigate the environmental compliance and permitting process, protect natural and cultural resources, and keep your project progressing on schedule. Rely on our remedial design and compliance services, including hazardous materials abatement design, management planning and disposal, and significant brownfields expertise, to help your project meet regulatory requirements and prepare your site for successful development – or redevelopment.

Optimizing design with subsurface data and practical expertise

We use the data collected during site selection to mitigate risk and collaborate with the design team to help verify building plans and selected materials are compatible with specific subsurface conditions and environmental factors. Our foundation design experts combine rigorous testing, analysis and monitoring of loads and stresses with deep experience with an array of foundation types to recommend options and associated risks so you can make the right decision for your project goals and budget.
