We are experts in focused, programmatic, and streamlined environmental reviews.

These span resource projects such as mining, water, and energy projects; infrastructure projects such as roadways, rail lines, and multi-state transmission lines; port projects; hospitals; urban infill development including commercial uses and housing; policy plans; and natural resource protection and restoration projects. Our approach is adaptable for projects of any size and is backed by our extensive industry experience serving both public and private clients.
