Services We Offer
Brockington and Associates has gathered together a powerful and diverse staff of experts, and we cover all areas of cultural resources consulting. Our consulting services include archaeology, history, historic architecture, and physical anthropology. We help our clients meet the requirements of the National Historic Preservation Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, and other federal, state, and local laws and regulations. While most of our work is research centered, we also provide assistance to our clients in planning environmental studies, in developing and implementing public involvement programs, and in creating public interpretation elements such as exhibits, displays, web sites, documentaries, and educational guides. More detailed discussions of these services are available by clicking on the topics to the left.
We are pleased to have clients who are industry leaders in several sectors. For many of our projects, we work as part of a large team of engineers, biologists, and other specialists. For example, we often contribute all cultural resources related planning, analysis, and reporting needs for producing an Environmental Impact Statement. These major projects may last several years. We also carry out a large number of small surveys and historic studies. Both large and small projects are important to us. While most of our work is in the Southeast, we are increasingly asked to help with projects throughout the nation, from California, to Kansas, to New York.
Serving Clients who are Industry Leaders
Our clients include private individuals and corporations involved in residential and business land development, electric power companies, pipeline firms (gas and products), and communications companies.
We work regularly for state transportation departments, and have on-call contracts with most DOTs in the Southeast. We also work for many other federal and state agencies such as those managing forests, parks, and other special use areas.
Most of our federal agency projects are carried out for the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard, National Guard, and Reserves. For many of these studies and plans for military installations, we work through U.S. Army, Corps of Engineers districts or offices of the Naval Facilities Engineering Command.
Our tribal consultation projects have allowed us to get know leaders and staff at a number of Indian nations. We have been asked over the last few years to work with them on archaeological and historical studies for their own developments, and on displays and public education projects for the tribes as well.
