Cultural Resources-Solving The Regulatory Challenges

Archaeological sites and historic resources…all can bring challenges to a project. But S&ME’s Cultural Resource professionals own the regulatory knowledge and technical skills that can help you identify these issues and keep your project on track.

From Phase I cultural resource surveys to National Register eligibility determinations, S&ME begins by identifying the cultural resources of concern on your site. But we don’t stop there.

From planning to permitting, from mitigation design to implementation, S&ME has navigated clients through the regulatory process in communities throughout the southeast.
