Cultural Resources

Environmental_Cultural Resources_1

Uncover the Past. Protect the Future.

Infrastructure projects trigger cultural resource requirements. We handle them efficiently so they don't slow down your timeline.

Our team has managed cultural compliance for decades across transportation, water, energy, and development projects. We know what agencies need to see for NEPA, Section 106, and Section 4(f) reviews. We conduct Phase I, II, and III surveys, evaluate sites for National Register eligibility, document historic structures, and coordinate with SHPOs and tribal consultants.

The result: Clear documentation, satisfied regulators, and projects that move forward.

  • Project and program management
  • Archaeological survey and excavation
  • Architectural History National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) eligibility Assessments
  • Section 106 consultation
  • Section 4(f) of the US DOT Act
  • National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) support
  • Due diligence reviews
  • Archaeological monitoring
  • Tribal consultation
  • Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) and Programmatic Agreement (PA) development

We staff projects with people who know the work. Many on our team have been on your side of the table—working for municipalities, utilities, and agencies before joining us. They understand tight budgets, public meetings, and council presentations because they've lived it.

That experience shapes how we run projects. We focus on the details that matter: constructability, maintainability, and realistic cost estimates. We catch problems in design, not during construction. And when issues come up, we solve them quickly instead of pointing to the contract.

  • Cemetery documentation, delineation, and management
  • Public involvement and outreach
  • Bioarchaeology
  • Resource and area management plans
  • LiDAR aerial mapping
  • Geophysical survey
