Project Environmental Scientist

Today, WSSI is the leading natural and cultural resources consultant in the Mid-Atlantic. Our scientists, regulatory specialists, engineers, surveyors, permit compliance specialists, archeologists, ecosystem and restoration specialists, arborists, and geographic information specialists provide expertise and experience for public and private sector builders to obtain the environmental approvals needed to create the built environment.
