Environmental Review
Barr assists clients with large-scale reviews for the development of mines, fuel refineries, and power-generation facilities, as well as transmission lines and pipelines. We work closely with our clients and state and federal regulatory agencies to plan and carry out studies and analyses required by the environmental review process, including those related to: air emissions, cumulative impacts, human-health and ecological risk, socioeconomics, threatened and endangered species, water quality and water supply, wastewater generation and discharge, wetlands
Because projects that trigger environmental reviews invariably require numerous permits for construction and operation, Barr approaches the review process with an eye toward permitting. Understanding how the two processes interrelate can reduce project costs by minimizing duplication of work and maximizing efficiency.
Through decades of experience on some of the region’s largest environmental reviews, we’ve become well acquainted with not only the regulations, but many of the regulators. Our familiarity with the environmental review process, permit application requirements, and expectations of regulators help position projects to move ahead smoothly and earn approval.
our service specialties include:
- Environmental Assessment Worksheets
- Environmental Impact Statements and Environmental Impact Assessments
- local land-use and zoning approval
- other environmental review processes
