Eocene Environmental Group

We are thrilled to finally launch Eocene Environmental Group, a strategic collaboration that brings together four exceptional companies under one roof. These four entities include what were once CN Utility Consulting (forestry & utility division), Transcon Environmental (environmental division), Terra Spectrum Technologies (technology & innovation division), and Sustainable Environmental Consultants (sustainability division). Each of these companies has long been a leader in their respective fields and now, united as Eocene, we are ready to improve quality of life through innovation, sustainable solutions, environmental stewardship, and collaboration. By combining the unique strengths and expertise of each company, it is our mission to offer our clients an unparalleled range of products and services that will exceed expectations and drive success. We are eager to begin creating a legacy that enriches our communities, enhances our environment, and improves the lives of our team members.

Meet Tomas Kneppers, a biologist in our environmental division!?? Fascinated by Steve Irwin since childhood, Tomas fostered his love and passion for animals and conservation, which led him to pursue a similar path that involved animals and nature. He’s travelled to 14 countries, including Portugal, South Africa and New Zealand, and has been to six out of the seven continents. In 2020, Tomas joined the Transcon Environmental team, now our environmental division, as a biologist compliance monitor in California. “My goal every day I go to work is to make biology fun and relatable to as many people as I can,” remarks Tomas. “I want people to be as interested and engaged in animals and conservation as I am, because over time, I hope they will share what they’ve learned to future generations.” Learn more about Tomas at https://lnkd.in/gct5Enqp

This month, our team was on the move, attending a variety of events across various industries. A special congratulations to all the Eocene employees recognized for their years of dedication at the Wright Service Corp. annual awards banquet. We’re grateful for their hard work and commitment—our success wouldn’t be possible without them?? Stay tuned for more updates as we continue making an impact in the industry!??

At Eocene Environmental Group, we are proud to help protect the iconic Mojave desert tortoise (Gopherus agassizii), listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. For more than a decade, we've worked with the Utah Department of Transportation, the Bureau of Land Management, and other partners across Utah, Nevada, California and Arizona to support conservation efforts. These tortoises can live up to 100 years and weigh up to 15 pounds, but habitat loss threatens their survival. Our Desert Tortoise Council-trained biologists follow U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service protocols to survey habitats, assess impacts and implement mitigation strategies to ensure their protection. Project-related impacts are identified and minimized through effective planning and implementation of mitigation strategies, in coordination with agencies and project proponents.

As you move forward on a project, finding balance between project goals and the preservation of these rich cultural assets is essential for both the legacy of the land and the success of your development. From identifying and mitigating impacts to cultural resources to conducting ethnographic studies and geoarchaeological investigations, we offer a wide range of services designed to reduce project risks and protect significant historical sites. ??
