HUD & NEPA Environmental Reviews

Civitas brings unparalleled federal Environmental Review (ER) expertise, as well as nationally sought-after comprehensive knowledge and experience with all aspects of HUD and CPF programs. The extensive cross-cutting knowledge allows our team to go beyond providing training and the execution of individual project ERs, and to also provide comprehensive guidance and advice regarding project selection, funding priorities, and strategic execution, if requested. By understanding federal programs from the inside out, Civitas can provide invaluable context to make future environmental planning decisions. At Civitas, HUD-related work is our primary focus and our specialty. We understand not just one piece of the puzzle, but how all of the pieces work together to form the bigger picture. Civitas has successfully assisted numerous HUD entitlement communities with HUD Environmental Reviews technical assistance and staff training services. Please let us know if we can assist your program with our ER services.
