PERMITTING
SVE has a superlative record of assisting clients with
local, state and federal permit acquisition. The firm
utilizes a collaborative approach to the permitting process
by working closely with agencies to resolve potential
issues well before the final design stage. This strategy
allows a free exchange of ideas which results in sometime
innovative but more typically cost-effective designs that
conform to both the client’s need and the regulatory
agency’s mission.
