Confident solutions for our changing world.

As communities face rising temperatures, extreme weather events, and aging infrastructure, strengthening their ability to navigate climate change is central to our mission. As an employee-owned company focused on water and the environment, our role is clear: bring science, engineering, and partnership to the forefront to help our communities plan for changing environmental conditions and make the most of our resources—no matter what lies ahead.

Our handprint far exceeds our footprint

Our purpose is to unlock the potential of water and a healthy environment to create thriving communities. Environmental responsibility is more than reducing harm—it’s about generating lasting good.

We focus on shrinking our footprint—the carbon emissions of our own operations—while expanding our handprint: the emissions we help our clients avoid through the decisions we inform and enable.

In 2025, we completed our first comprehensive greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory to better understand the environmental impacts of our business and provide a baseline for how to improve our day-to-day operations. What we found: The GHG reduction achieved by a single biogas project exceeds our firm’s entire footprint.

With hundreds of projects underway, each with unique environmental benefits, the conclusion is clear: our handprint is several times larger than our footprint.
