It was a great experience for our President, and Principal River Engineer, Leif Embertson, at the American Rivers Lobby Days, meeting with Pacific Northwest congressional and senate leaders on the importance of hydropower reform, Columbia River restoration appropriations, and FEMA policy.

We take our culture very seriously here at NSD + CGS.

This year we created a 2024 Culture Action Plan workgroup. We look forward to providing you with updates on our goals and results as the year progresses.
