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.
Your Partner in Sustainable and Compliant Projects
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.
Our Core Environmental Engineering Services
We provide a comprehensive suite of services to address the environmental aspects of your project. Our services include:
-
We conduct thorough ESAs to identify potential environmental liabilities and, if needed, perform subsurface investigations to determine the extent of contamination.
-
We design and implement strategies to clean up contaminated sites, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.
-
Our experts identify wetland boundaries, navigate the complex permitting process with agencies like the USACE, and design effective mitigation plans.
-
We manage the design and permitting for grease interceptors required for food service establishments, ensuring compliance with local utility authorities like Miami-Dade DERM.
-
We analyze the impacts of sea-level rise and climate change, designing resilient infrastructure for coastal areas. This service is enhanced by our Climate Change Model Projection (AI-Powered) capabilities.
Permitting for Environmental Engineering
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.
County & Municipal Environmental Permits
Handling local permits such as tree removal permits, wellfield protection permits, and specific permits from agencies like Miami-Dade DERM.

When to bring in civil and environmental engineering
- A property transaction or financing needs a Phase I or Phase II Environmental Site Assessment before it closes.
- A site has, or may have, wetlands, contaminated soil or groundwater, or protected trees that will shape what can be built and where.
- A project needs permits from federal, state, water-management-district, county or municipal environmental agencies, and the applications have to be prepared and defended.
- A coastal or low-lying site has to be designed against sea-level rise or flood exposure over its service life.
