State and local agencies use this code to solicit planning frameworks, site assessments, mitigation strategies, and implementation roadmaps that translate environmental data into actionable governance and capital-improvement guidance. Work ranges from stormwater and lakes management planning to shoreline adaptation, brownfield site inventory, air quality permitting support, and habitat restoration assessment.
