Our disciplinary specialties include environmental planning, regulatory compliance, natural resource management, cultural resources management, restoration planning and monitoring, air quality, health risk assessment and greenhouse gas emissions analyses and water resource management.

MBA serves clients in the western United States with a full staff of environmental professionals from offices located in Fresno, Irvine, Palm Springs, Sacramento, San Bernardino, and San Ramon. Our client base is comprised of numerous local government agencies, as well as land developers, contractors, home builders, engineers, financial institutions, law firms, the military, academic institutions, water, wastewater, utility, and transportation agencies, and state agencies.

The MBA team consists of environmental resource leaders who possess an intimate understanding of environmental regulations, laws, and compliance. Our outstanding staff has hands-on experience managing complex projects with diverse challenges, including scheduling and logistics, public relations, long-term field efforts, and multifaceted legal and agency compliance issues. As testament to our skill level, MBA staff is regularly called upon to provide expert testimony, instruct at technical seminars, and lead conferences. MBA staff is also actively involved in professional associations, legislative activity, and scientific research forums. This participation ensures we remain up-to-date on environmental issues and continue to be viewed as an informational resource in the communities we serve.

We believe that our strongest company asset is responsiveness to our clients. To that end, we emphasize maintaining a high level of communication while producing a product that is clear, concise and legally-defensible. We have grown our business based upon our ability to meet the needs of clients statewide. We are proud of the positive reputation MBA has built over the past nearly three decades and hope to have the opportunity to assist you with a future project.
