KCI guides clients through every stage of the NEPA and environmental permitting process, ensuring projects comply with federal, state, and local environmental regulations from the outset.
Our team prepares all levels of environmental clearance documents including Categorical Exclusions, Environmental Assessments, and Environmental Impact Statements in addition to Section 4(f) Evaluations with clear, well-documented findings to support agency approvals. To inform decision-making, we conduct detailed field studies and modeling for air quality, noise, natural, cultural, and socioeconomic resources, identifying and quantifying potential impacts with scientific precision.
