E&E widens wester footprint
Ecology and Environment Inc. will expand its operations western United States with the formation of a new subsidiary.
The Lancaster environmental consulting firm said the added unit, Lowham Walsh LLC, will focus on the Rocky Mountain and Northern Great Plains region. E&E (NASDAQ: EEI) recently increased its ownership stake in its Walsh subsidiary to 76 percent from 58 percent.
“E&E has been working in the west for nearly four decades, and we recognize the enormous importance of this part of the country for meeting national energy demands. This increased regional presence will enable us to better serve our clients and is a valuable addition to our domestic operations,” said company president and CEO Kevin Neumaier.
The expansion follows E&E’s recent opening of an office in Salt Lake City, Utah.
