Source Environmental Sciences, Inc.

BACKGROUND OF FIRM: Source Environmental Sciences, Inc. was founded in 1984 as the Houston office of RTP Environmental Associates by Jack Coblenz and several other environmental specialists from Dames & Moore, Inc. (a large multi-national environmental consulting firm). On January 1, 1988, it became an independent firm with the new name of Source Environmental Sciences, Inc. to better describe the firm's work with sources of air, water and waste emissions. Source grew during these years from a small consulting firm specializing in air and hazardous waste permits to a full service environmental consulting firm.

Since its founding, Source has concentrated on performing environmental consulting services for industrial and commercial clients in Texas and in nearby states. Over the years, Source has gained a reputation for providing very high quality services at fair and reasonable costs. As a result, Source grew rapidly into a firm of 50 employees.

In late 1990 Source was purchased by Team, Inc., a large nation-wide industrial services firm, where it became the Source Environmental Science Division of Team, Inc. The operations, services and staff of Source remained essentially unchanged and Jack Coblenz continued managing operations as President of the Source Division.

In 1995 having completed his contractual agreements with Team, Mr. Coblenz reformed Source Environmental Sciences, Inc. as an independent environmental consulting firm. The firm conveniently located its offices in the Galleria area of Houston, Texas, the heart of the city’s commercial and retail activities. Source now has a modest size staff of highly qualified environmental experts. Since 1995 this group of experts has performed numerous environmental consulting projects for a very large number of clients. The scope of this work and the variety of clients can be readily seen on the attached project listings.

SERVICES PROVIDED: Source specializes in providing environmental and consulting services to industrial and commercial clients. These services include preparation of environmental reports, technical filings and related studies such as air, water and waste permit applications, evaluation of air and water pollutants as well as various studies to determine the transport, dispersion and final impact of air and water pollutants.  

The primary focus of Source is to assist clients in achieving compliance with all environmental requirements. The operating philosophy of Source is to provide its clients with the highest possible level of professional consulting services in accordance with established requirements while always being responsive to the specific needs of its clients.
