Our Philosophy:
Founded in 1989, HSA Golden provides comprehensive, integrated, environmental engineering and environmental consulting services. We offer public and private sector clients an alternative to large, impersonal, and often expensive environmental firms. We prefer to deliver personalized, responsive service and bottom-line project solutions which stem from years of project management experience. HSA Golden is owned and operated by working principals, each with up to 25 years of professional experience. Our firm is specifically dedicated to matters surrounding site and contamination assessment, soil and groundwater remediation, solid waste management facility services, indoor air quality/mold, water supply, storm water management, pollutant storage tank system design and installation, and performance of real estate due diligence and environmental site assessments.

Philosophically, we strive to avoid excessive and unnecessary investigative procedures; we are solution-oriented and focused on achieving the goals of our clients in a timely and cost-effective manner. It is this practical perspective that has translated into significant time and cost savings for our clients. The quality of our services, anchored by pragmatic experience and the attention we give to our clients, separates us from other engineering consulting firms.

Advanced Environmental Engineering Capabilities:
Our present capabilities include regulatory compliance, engineering support and remedial design, solid waste/land fill facility design, permitting, monitoring, and closure services, hydrogeology and site assessment, geotechnical and construction-related services, and wetland services. We maintain access to the most modern investigative and testing equipment, state-of-the-art communications, data gathering and graphics capabilities, technical libraries, computing equipment, and software used to model complex contaminant, groundwater, and storm water behavior.

When project requirements call for specializations outside our areas of expertise, we partner with local, highly-qualified firms as neccessary to provide these specialty services. Having been established in Central Florida since 1989, we have formed relationships with well-respected firms capable of delivering the highest-quality services available. This allows us to provide turnkey, "one-stop-shopping" services, and allows you to focus on other matters.

A Unique Understanding of Florida's Environment & Regulatory Agencies:
HSA Golden's professionals are intimately familiar with the complex regulatory framework and geologic and hydrogeologic characteristics of Florida's environment. This fact not only accounts for our understanding of Florida's environmental requirements, but ensures a sincere desire on the part of our professionals to protect our environment while assisting clients in efficiently dealing with regulatory requirements.

Relationships with regulatory agencies remain an important consideration when selecting engineering consultants. Our ability to negotiate satisfactory permit conditions, remedial actions, and site monitoring plans directly with regulatory agency personnel allows our clients the ability to make decisions efficiently and effectively regarding a project's technical direction, expenditures, and compliance status. Having been established in Central Florida since 1989, we have a thorough understanding of state and local regulatory procedures and requirements and have an excellent working relationship with regulatory agency staff. Exacting attention to detail and quality control has allowed us to maintain the respect and confidence of senior regulators who oversee enforcement of environmental statutes.

Reliable, Respected Experts in Diverse Environmental Services:
HSA Golden personnel are routinely sought upon as qualified experts to provide insight on problems regarding virtually all aspects of environmental matters. HSA Golden principals are well known for their expertise in the siting and permitting of landfills and waste processing facilities, assessment and remediation of petroleum and hazardous wastes, toxic mold, as well as less common environmental contaminants. We also provide forensic engineering, peer review, and expert witness testimony services for sensitive regulatory compliance issues. Water use permitting and hydrogeologic evaluation of minimum levels of flow are also areas of expertise for our firm.
