Our History: 25 Years of Vision, Integrity, and Results

ECC was founded in 1985 with a mission to support environmental programs for Federal government agencies. Our services included emergency response and hazardous waste treatment removal, and transportation and disposal (T&D) services.

Truly a success story, ECC has strengthened in size, experience, and capabilities to a highly competitive Federal contractor. Today, an employee-owned company, ECC competes against some of the world’s largest engineering, construction, design-build, and environmental cleanup companies. We execute design-build, construction, and environmental remediation programs valued from $100,000 to $1 billion from office and project locations around the globe. Significant achievements that have driven our growth and success include:

1998: ECC won the first performance-based $50 million Site Specific Environmental Remediation Contract (SSERC) at Wayne Industrial Storage Site for USACE Kansas City, which went on to receive numerous awards, including the 8th Annual Design Excellence Award.

1999: ECC was awarded the Navy's first worldwide unexploded ordnance (UXO) response contract (NURC). Through this $50M contract, ECC executed complex projects for the Navy and Marines around the world including Alaska, Okinawa, Hawaii, Louisiana, and California. Today, our munitions response experts provide innovative solutions to MMRP projects for all DoD agencies.

2003: ECC received our first US Department of Energy site closure contract, the 2-year, $50 million Columbus Closure Project. Closure of this research reactor site required remediation of highly contaminated radioactive soil and groundwater. The project resulted in NRC de-licensing and DOE’s first free release closure.

2004: ECC was awarded the $4 billion joint total acquisition value (JTAV) AFCEE Worldwide Environmental Restoration and Construction Contract, which ultimately led to more than $1.4 billion in design-build projects in the Middle East across multiple contracts.

2005: ECC was awarded a $1 billion emergency-response contract from the USACE to cleanup some of the hardest hit areas in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. Partnering with the community, ECC subcontracted 92 percent of the subcontracted dollars to local small businesses.

2006: Our MMR project was recognized with OSHA’s Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) Star Among Stars designation, the first of several ECC VPP Star Sites, including sites throughout Colorado and Guam.

2007-2008: ECC received the $6 billion JTAV, AFCEE Heavy Engineering Repair and Construction Contract and $4 billion JTAV, AFCESA Sustainment, Restoration, and Modernization (SRM) Acquisition Task Order Contract (SATOC)

Most recently, ECC has won several exciting new contracts, including:
  • Master developer, $200-$400 million, Federal City New Orleans Privatization Project
  • Prime contractor, $750 million JTAV, AAFES Design-Build/Bid-Build Construction Contract
  • Prime Contractor, $773 million JTAV, Tactical Infrastructure Contracts supporting Homeland Security Initiatives for the USACE Tulsa and Ft. Worth Districts
  • Prime contractor, $900 million JTAV, NAVFAC Pacific, Global Multiple Award Construction Contract
  • Prime contractor, $3 billion JTAV, AFCEE Worldwide Environmental Restoration Contract
