Who we are

Rapid Environmental Group (REG) is a Michigan-based environmental consulting firm delivering science-based, practical solutions for landowners, developers, municipalities, and private industry.

We specialize in water-resource permitting, regulatory compliance, and environmental strategy—helping clients move projects forward while responsibly managing natural resources. Our work bridges the gap between technical environmental science and real-world decision-making.

Our focus

REG supports projects involving state and federal water-resource programs, including:

  • Wetlands and surface waters

  • Groundwater and wastewater systems

  • Lakes, rivers, and streams

  • State and federal permitting and compliance

  • Environmental planning and regulatory strategy

Our experience spans Michigan’s Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act (NREPA) and applicable federal programs under the Clean Water Act, allowing us to provide defensible, agency-ready deliverables.

our approach

We believe effective environmental consulting must be technically rigorous, regulatorily sound, and practical for our clients.

REG is intentionally structured as a focused, hands-on firm. Senior-level professionals remain directly involved in every project—ensuring clear communication, efficient problem-solving, and results that stand up to regulatory review.

Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, we tailor our approach to each site, project goal, and regulatory framework. This allows us to identify risks early, streamline permitting where possible, and support long-term compliance.
