Sand County Environmental, Inc., is a nationally-recognized environmental engineering firm providing a full array of phytoremediation and traditional remediation solutions to private and public service sectors. Our work is most often conducted for owners of landfills, lenders, retail and wholesale agricultural chemical storage facilities, local and state governments, and other property owners where soil, groundwater, or stormwater management issues are of concern.
Sand County Environmental (SCE) is currently undertaking a large remediation project near the banks of the beautiful Missouri River. The River, nicknamed “Big Muddy” because of the huge amount of sediments it carries, is part of the longest river system in North America. It begins in Montana, drains much of the Great Plains, then joins the Mississippi River before flowing to the Gulf of Mexico. Environmental impacts to rivers are cumulative; small impacts upstream compound to create big problems downstream. SCE’s efforts to remediate excess soil nitrogen from an old fertilizer facility using a combination of excavation, in-situ denitrification, and capping will help reduce nitrogen loading to the Missouri River at the remediation site.
On February 5, 1996, Sand County Environmental, Inc. was founded as Sand Creek Consultants, Inc. in Rhinelander, Wisconsin. Sand County Environmental was born out of a desire to serve our clients in a more personal way, with solutions tailored to each client’s exact needs. We have prided ourselves on providing solutions that are unique in nature, while taking on projects in a wide variety of disciplines and magnitudes. The past 26 years has taken us through hundreds of projects in 18 different states across several regions of the country. These projects have ranged from small-scale pilots in rural areas, to large-scale projects in populous urban centers. Our founders were willing to think outside of the box and push for progress in their various fields of discipline – we strive to continue to embody these qualities in our work today. As we continue to navigate the waters of design and regulation, we hope to continue to furnish the technical expertise and unique solutions that have set us apart from other firms in our field.
We would like to thank all of our past and present clients that have placed their trust in us over the years to provide solutions for their environmental quandaries. Without you, we would not have made it all these years! Thank you!
