HVJ Statewide

HVJ Associates®

Environmental

We provide environmental services from the HVJ office in Houston, established in 1985.

Environmental Geology and Engineering Services

We provide hazardous waste, wetlands, fault, and aquifer characterizations and NEPA assessments for a diverse client base with an emphasis on public infrastructure projects. Long, horizontal construction projects are different due to the potential impacts of facilities near the alignment but not within the right of way.  We identify possible effects early in project development and provide mitigation strategies so the project can proceed on time and achieve the project goals.

Recent Projects

We focus on public sector infrastructure projects.  We deliver superior engineering knowledge and an outstanding collaborative experience.
