Senior Leadership Team

Picture
Strata Environmental was established almost twenty-five years ago by Charles Ferst P.E. and an experienced team of senior engineers and scientists. The consultancy includes services in regulatory compliance and permitting, environmental due diligence, multimedia environmental investigations, engineering applications and solutions in water and air, and remedial design and project management for a wide range of environmental cleanups. The Strata Environmental practice functions on an approach where every project team is led by a principal, and is staffed by the same senior staff from project onset to completion.

"In Memoriam: Charles W. Ferst, May 20, 2022.  Founder, owner, CEO, engineer, mentor at Strata 1992-2022."
