Environmental Documentation
We have extensive experience in preparing Environmental Assessments (EA) and Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) to fulfill the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and related state regulations. We have developed a proven approach to evaluating practical measures for minimizing adverse impacts while enhancing beneficial project effects. This is critical to the acceptance of a proposed project by both regulatory agencies and the public.
Our staff has developed methods and processes to:
- provide early and consistent communication with stakeholders
- identify significant issues early in the environmental process

We have experience with the three Federal levels of action or environmental classification including: Class I Actions requiring a Draft and Final Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS and FEIS); Class II Actions or Categorical Exclusions (CEs); and Class III Actions requiring an Environmental Assessment.

We have prepared NEPA documents that comply with regulation promulgated by agencies including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Federal Highway Administration, Minerals Management Service, the U.S. Forest Service and numerous state NEPA regulations.
