A neighboring gasoline station experienced a serious release of pollution upgradient from our property. Coles and Betts Environmental Consulting proposed and monitored the in-situ treatment program that was successful in restoring both the polluted gas station and our downgradient site. We found them to be highly professional, thorough, and efficient in methods and reporting.

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

OUR TEAM
It takes teamwork to develop and implement the most effective, efficient (not to mention satisfying!) solutions with solid, trusting relationships earned over time. Coles and Betts Environmental Consulting is the result of the evolution of a collaboration that started in 1994, when Barbara and Dave Coles decided to join forces under their own banner.
Seasoned by over twenty years of deep and varied land-use planning, scientific research and project management, Barbara and Dave spent the next 15 years integrating their knowledge and establishing strong connections with their client base, service providers, and regulators until it was clear they had expanded beyond what they could do on their own.
Fortunately, their search for the right partner came to an end when a friend and colleague (a driller, as it happens) enthusiastically insisted Barbara and Dave meet geologist Jill Betts, who likewise had built a strong reputation and network of clients and partners. One get-to-know-you lunch in 2009 was all it took. Combining forces gave Coles and Betts Environmental Consulting an extensive network of professional associates. We also have a proven track record of cultivating relationships with other service providers that take a similar approach to customer service, resulting in pleased clients and regulators.
Coles and Betts Environmental Consulting—as a company and as individuals—has provided us with the highest level of professional environmental consulting services multiple times. We have benefitted from their expertise and commitment to detail, honesty, industry connections, advocacy of our best interests, timely communications, and positive personal relationships.
