We perform on site mechanical and bio-remediation in upstream and downstream applications.The Environmental Division provides construction services for highly sensitive ecological areas and focuses on short term, small crew projects that vary in length from as little as one week up to a few months. Because they are short term and carry such high environmental risk factors, pre-planning is critical to the success of our projects. These projects are all very time sensitive and revolve around the fluctuation of the rising reservoir water levels.
