37 Environmental Permitting & Compliance Projects

Protecting the environment and our clients.

As environmental concerns grow, so do permitting and compliance requirements from federal and state governments. Some states are leading the way with green initiatives and others are taking more aggressive measures to protect natural resources. It’s an ever-changing, increasing, and complex array of regulations that impact any project involving the natural environment.

LaBella offers permitting and compliance services throughout the eastern U.S. and select sections of the central U.S. Our wetland, ecological, and geology professionals perform all due diligence-related studies and reports to help support the development of a project. LaBella staff members have expertise in federal, state, local permitting, and environmental impact analysis in their respective regions up and down the East Coast. Our team can work with our planning group to help you navigate through applicable regulations, and potential project impacts to natural resources. We also have a full-service compliance group to provide oversight and guidance during the various construction phases of a project, ranging from environmental, agricultural, and stormwater inspections to spoils management and air monitoring.

Our compliance and permitting specialists have excellent relationships with key agencies to help ensure project objectives are met. We provide hands-on support at every stage, including project planning, construction, and operations and maintenance. Our team’s in-depth knowledge, proactive approach, and vast regulatory experience ensures efficiency. And our respect for your business objectives means project success. It is possible to satisfy all regulatory requirements and achieve your business and project goals.

Featured Insight

What is Climate Resilience?

As we march into the 21st century, there is a need for a more thoughtful and holistic design of our communities. “Green” measures such as energy-efficient buildings, the reduction of organic waste deposition into landfills, vehicle fleet electrification, and the use of natural systems to combat the effects of a changing climate are critical.

These are examples of sustainability because they can be maintained and continued over an extended period of time. Additionally, we need to plan for a changing climate to build communities that can withstand more extreme weather events. This is called climate resilience.

To learn more about climate resilience and how it affects the design of our communities, check out our deep dive on the topic provided by our Environmental Engineer, Jared Pristach, PE.
