At Westward, Earth Day inspires our everyday mission. Through every soil and water sample, permit review, and site plan, we strive to guide industries toward responsible resource use, in alignment with local and national standards. From ecology to geology to engineering, our integrated environmental services are built around one core value—responsible stewardship of the planet.

Our geologists provide the foundational understanding of earth processes that guide sustainable development. By evaluating subsurface composition and groundwater aquifer health, we help ensure that each project we support considers the land it stands on—and beneath. This work is essential for protecting drinking water, preventing erosion, and reducing long-term environmental risks.

Our engineering and design teams integrate environmental considerations to develop practical, resource-efficient solutions. Whether it’s creating stormwater management systems, stabilizing slopes, or designing infrastructure that aligns with regulatory frameworks, we prioritize solutions that minimize environmental impact while maximizing durability and function. Smart engineering doesn’t just solve problems—it prevents them.

Regulatory compliance is another critical part of our consulting services. From air permitting to water quality assessments to environmental compliance, we guide clients through complex environmental regulations that safeguard natural resources. Clean air, clean water, and protected habitats are not only legal requirements——they’re collective responsibilities we take pride in helping our clients meet and maintain.

Ecology, the final piece of our service spectrum, ties it all together. Our biologists and ecologists conduct field surveys, habitat assessments, and species monitoring to ensure that ecosystems are respected throughout the lifecycle of a project. We work to preserve biodiversity and help clients adapt to shifting environmental expectations with science-driven insight.

This Earth Day, we take a moment to reflect on the work we do and why it matters. Whether it’s safeguarding water quality, designing with the natural environment in mind, or helping clients navigate complex regulations, we’re proud to be part of the effort to create a more sustainable future. Every project is a chance to make a positive impact—and that’s something we carry with us every day of the year.
