Industries

Apogee’s ecologists and archaeologists have worked throughout the United States for a variety of clients and project types. As we all know, each industry has its own specific needs and issues that sometimes need outside support, and in that, there are varying levels of contracted customer service to a project. Good consultants provide their deliverables accordingly while great consultants develop their internal systems to each unique permit setting. Apogee prides itself on tailoring our approach to what will best expedite our clients’ projects dependent on the industry‐specific requirements.

Solar

Utility scale solar is the energy wave of the future and we at Apogee have stood up and are now riding this wave. With a service footprint that overlays many states that are actively pushing solar, we are perfectly positioned to help our clients in this burgeoning market. To date, Apogee has surveyed tens of thousands of acres to help its clients navigate the unique compliance circumstances that often accompany solar projects.

Oil & Natural Gas

The discovery of oil and gas reserves in the Marcellus, Utica and, Rogersville Shales over the last decade has turned Appalachia into a focal point in our nation’s growing demand for energy. Apogee is working alongside our clients to provide quick turn-around with a quality product on necessary deliverables leaving permit issues as one less worry. Apogee has successfully addressed environmental compliance issues across hundreds of miles of proposed pipeline corridors, including projects under Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) jurisdictions.

Telecommunications

Apogee has conducted surveys and written desktop reports for hundreds of telecommunications projects under the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Nationwide Programmatic Agreement Regarding The Section 106 National Historic Preservation Act Review Process. Completed projects include monopole cell towers, lattice cell towers, 5G C-RAN sites, and collocations.
