Energy
The Energy operating segment is strategically positioned to serve key areas
within the energy market which is currently investing in modernization,
expansion, enhancement and replacement of outdated facilities. Our energy
service offerings have evolved over the past decade to include support in the
licensing and engineering design of new sources of power generation and
electric transmission and distribut ion system upgrades. As major investorowned utilities continue to consolidate and downsize their engineering and
environmental staffs, we expect to continue to see long-term growth in these
service areas, as well as expansion of the energy efficiency and demand
management markets.
Environmental
The Environmental operating segment is our largest operating segment. We
are a national market leader in the areas of air quality modeling, air emissions
testing and monitoring, cultural and natural resource management, permitting
of energy and energy related facilities and remediation of contaminated sites.
We also work with clients moving beyond regulatory requirements and adopting
management strategies embracing environmental, social and governance
accountability - promoting improved business performance through reduced
operational costs, revenue generation, or enhanced company brand value.
Infrastructure
We offer a variety of services to our infrastructure clients related to: (1)
rehabilitation of overburdened and deteriorating infrastructure systems; (2)
design, construction engineering inspection and construction management
associated with new infrastructure projects; and (3) management of risks
related to security of public and private facilities.

Perspectives on the O&G Market
The oil and natural gas markets are
experiencing an unprecedented boom
cycle, overwhelming the capability of
existing infrastructure to handle these
products. As a result, new pipelines are
being constructed, processing plants
built, refineries expanded, and ports and
terminals modified to process and load
products for export to foreign markets.
TRC’s holistic approach to oil and gas
projects aims to fulfill our clients’
business and operational needs; provide
for the health and safety of project staff
and local communities; and consider
potential environmental impacts both
during construction and operation.
