Service
RSP Engineers offers civil and environmental engineering services for sustainable project solutions.
RSP Engineers provides specialized civil and environmental engineering services that balance development goals with ecological responsibility. We deliver solutions that protect and enhance natural resources while ensuring your project complies with all environmental regulations. From site assessments to remediation and sustainable design, we are your partners in responsible development.
Our integrated approach combines the principles of civil engineering with a deep understanding of environmental science. We help clients navigate complex regulations, mitigate environmental risks, and implement sustainable practices that add long-term value to their projects.
Have questions?
We provide a comprehensive suite of services to address the environmental aspects of your project. Our services include:
Navigating environmental regulations is one of our core strengths. We secure permits from a wide array of federal, state, and local agencies.
FDEP & EPA Permits
Managing a variety of permits related to water quality, air quality, and waste management.
USACE & Water Management District Permits
Securing dredge and fill permits and Environmental Resource Permits (ERPs) for work in or affecting wetlands and other surface waters.
Residential communities, Commercial property, Mixed-use development, Industrial, Data centers, City and municipal, County government, Government civil engineering, Ports and maritime.
For data center sites, the same scope is organized by question, with RSP Engineers' published guides on each:
Tell us about the project — the site or property, the type of development, its stage, and what you need civil and environmental engineering for — and we will come back to you about scope and next steps.
Civil and environmental work is delivered on committed dates, with every package peer-reviewed before it is issued and the findings resolved by a licensed engineer. See RSP Advantage.
Case study
RSP Engineers supported the full site design and environmental permitting, a 45-acre Industrial Outdoor Storage site with a private gas station, including stormwater plans, utility design, wetland mitigation, and ERP coordination in Polk County.

Case study· Engineering for Stormwater Management
Frisco, Texas
An occupied senior living campus in Frisco had drainage that no longer performed as designed. RSP assessed existing conditions, researched the permit record, modelled the stormwater system and designed a collection and regrading scheme approved for construction by the City of Frisco.

Case study· Engineering for Stormwater Management
Fort Bend County, Texas
An established residential community in Fort Bend County had drainage its existing system was not resolving. RSP assessed conditions, researched permits, modelled the system and designed two trapezoidal channels and a collector pipe working back from a fixed tie-in invert, approved for construction by Fort Bend County.

Case study· Engineering Robust Industrial Solutions
Medley, Florida
A seven-acre industrial site in Medley was entirely impervious before redevelopment. The stormwater design cut impervious cover to 87.7 per cent, created a 0.447-acre retention area and more than quadrupled underground detention, and was approved by the Town of Medley, Miami-Dade County and Miami-Dade DERM.
Read case study →When a property transaction or financing needs a Phase I or Phase II Environmental Site Assessment before it closes, or when a site has - or may have - wetlands, contaminated soil or groundwater, or protected trees that will shape what can be built and where.
A Phase I is a records, site and interview review that identifies whether recognized environmental conditions are likely to exist. A Phase II follows only if the Phase I finds something, and involves sampling and laboratory analysis to establish whether contamination is actually present.
Depending on the site, federal, state, water-management-district, county or municipal environmental agencies - often several at once. The applications have to be prepared and then defended through review, which is usually the longer part.
They constrain where development can go and sometimes how much of the site is usable. Establishing their extent early means the layout can be designed around them, rather than redesigned after a review comment.
A coastal or low-lying site can be designed against flood exposure over its service life rather than against present conditions alone. That work translates projected conditions into elevation and design criteria for the project.
Tell us the site, schedule and jurisdiction and we will confirm which disciplines and licences apply before proposing scope.
