Local Development Knowledge Combined with Nationwide ExperienceCornerstone Environmental Group staff has years of expe-rience providing services for site and civil features at solid waste, commercial, institutional, and industrial facilities. Our design, permitting, operations, and construction manage-ment solutions help clients maximize operational and asset efficiency, profit, safety, and durability.

These refinements have served to enhance and improve facility operations, profitability, reg-ulatory compliance, and energy efficiency.What Sets Cornerstone Apart?• Client focus – Our business philosophy is rooted in provid-ing superior service to our clients and we begin each proj-ect by getting a full understanding of the client’s goals for the facility, really listening to their needs and asking the right questions.• Local support from nationwide presence – Offering a local perspective and knowledge of local business realities and regulatory issues, we also incorporate the best ideas from successful regional, national, and international solutions.• Client focus – Listening to our clients’ needs and objec-tives and thoroughly understanding the daily and long- term challenges that owners and operators face.• Our solutions improve clients’ bottom line – We consid-er the entire life-cycle of a facility, incorporating design elements that maximize flexibility for future use, maxi-mize efficiency of site operations and facilitate future site growth/expansion.• Environmentally sound design – Cornerstone follows green design principles, including using recycled materials in pavement and base, water harvesting, and looking for pollution prevention opportunities.• Client satisfaction – Much of our work is repeat business or word of mouth referrals, a testament to our record of listening to our client’s vision and understanding how to translate that into necessary civil design features.Building lifetime relationships with our clients and employeesSolutions that are integrated with overall facility design and maximize our clients' assetsSite and Civil Design ServicesSite / Civil Design Services ProvidedSite Design Engineering• Preliminary planning and cost estimating• Regulatory agency assistance/coordination• Grading and site utilities design• Site circulation• Land use applications and planning• Parking area design• Roadway design• Construction plans and specifications• Construction Quality Assurance (CQA)Surface Water Management Design• Hydrologic evaluations• Hydraulic design• Drainage/surface water management studies• Erosion control planning• Clean Water Act Section 404 permitting• Floodplain delineations• Floodway encroachment studies• Storm drainage design and modeling• Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP)Environmental Engineering• Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures (SPCC) Plans• Due diligence investigations and reporting• Groundwater sampling, compliance and consulting ser-vices• Air sampling, compliance and consulting services • Remedial investigations and consulting servicesFor more information, e-mail info@cornerstoneeg.com or visit www.cornerstoneeg.comRecent Cornerstone ExperienceCornerstone prides itself on establishing close and produc-tive relationships with its clients.
