The Environmental team spends time in the field and in front of a computer throughout the year. Field work includes wetland and other surface waters delineations, habitat surveys, wildlife surveys, and noise monitoring that are performed to support impact assessments, impact avoidance, regulatory permitting efforts, and pre- and post-construction compliance. When we are at our computers, we perform desktop surveys, analyze the data collected in the field and use those data to prepare natural resource reports, mitigation and monitoring plans, regulatory permit applications, and other technical papers as needed. The Environmental Intern will support the environmental team in conducting fieldwork, data analysis, and reporting for civil engineering projects. This role provides hands‑on experience in environmental compliance, permitting, and sustainability practices within infrastructure development.

Key Responsibilities: Assist in environmental site assessments and field investigations, including soil, water, and air sampling. Support preparation of environmental reports, including Phase I/II ESA, wetland delineations, and habitat assessments. Collect and organize data for regulatory compliance (e.g., stormwater, erosion control, endangered species).Help with GIS mapping and spatial analysis for environmental constraints. Participate in construction site inspections to ensure adherence to environmental regulations. Research local, state, and federal environmental regulations relevant to civil engineering projects. Collaborate with engineers and scientists on sustainable design solutions.
