Cultural Resources Management Services

Experienced, Certified, Anthropologist-Led Cultural Resources Team

Ensuring what we do today, respects a site's past, cultural integrity, & ecological function.

EOR has experience working with communities and clients in navigating a myriad of environmental rules, regulations, and federal acts in assessing potential environmental impacts to cultural resources. Cultural resources include: xxxxxxxx, xxxxxxxx, xxxxxxxxxxxx and xxxxxxxxxxxx and can be involved with any project type that entails any type of land development and/or terrain alterations such as new grading and drainage patterns.

Working with local, state, tribal, federal regulations and reviews, we are able to provide our clients with the expertise required to navigate a site's historic context, its sociocultural relationships, and physical discovery - including the documentation thereof. We have a deep understanding of the regulations, as well as the critically important relationships that exit between people and their natural and cultural environments.
