YOUR IMPACT

CHA is uniquely qualified to assist any client with environmental services. From initial site characterization through remediation, CHA draws on the expertise of staff team members that possess considerable environmental site assessment and remediation experience. We have been providing environmental consulting services for over 25 years, and we employ a team of approximately 100 scientists and engineers who keep abreast of current regulatory issues.

At CHA, our Scientists are experts with company and client methods, standard operating procedures, reporting templates, and practices. As a result, these individuals play an important role in evaluating the potential impact of federal, state, and local environmental regulations.

Our Scientists conduct field work and prepare information to be utilized by managers, colleagues, clients, and even public information meetings and hearings. While in the office, these individuals work on data analysis, reporting, and completion of permits alongside mentors.

Additionally, our Scientists collect samples, provide drilling oversight, and construction operation assistance. They collect, analyze, and report on geological, hydrological, biological, or other scientific conditions at the proposed project site to identify the impact on the environment.

At CHA, you can build a career and find your passion across our diverse business lines and project teams.
