Living in a karst terrain comes with unanticipated discoveries and Federal, State and local rules may apply when a new cave of karst feature is uncovered. If not planned for, these events can result in major delays and cost overruns for development projects, not to mention ecological damage and water quality issues. Cambrian’s staff includes a bench of veteran licensed geoscientists and permitted biologists who can assist in resolving these issues under time constraints. We have been involved in many of the most significant cave discoveries in recent years.
