Company History

Having worked as senior hydrogeologist for large consulting firms and government, deciding to do things his way, in 1993 Rick Gagné formed his own groundwater and environmental consulting firm by the name RG Hydro-Environmental Ltd. That company developed an excellent reputation for work in several areas, including: contract and quality management; contamination hydrogeology; project planning and management relating to phase I, II and III site contamination assessments, site remediation; environmental audits; and water supply development.

The market and client needs had changed over time, so in 2000 the new name earth-water Concepts was chosen and incorporated as a new company one year later to better reflect an increased focus in serving clients in such areas as watershed and water resource planning, management, and water supply development.
