Here's what a few clients have said about CEC's performance
|
"The
Norfolk District has greatly benefited from CEC's expertise in community
relations services. CEC's Restoration Advisory Board at Nansemond serves
as the EPA model for other federal facilities in the region. The Norfolk
District has been fortunate to have an environmental communications
expert on our team." "The
City of Rockville completed an 18-month long project called the Cabin
John Sewer Study. Through this project I have had the pleasure of working
with CEC who handled the public outreach. CEC developed a solid rapport
with the City residents who participated in this project and those who
have voiced concerns over this sewer upgrade project. CEC was very thorough
in coordinating all public outreach meetings, open houses, and mailings/publications.
This project has been a total success and this is in part attributable
to CEC's professionalism and interpersonal skills. Community involvement
was a vital part in the success of this project. " "CEC
has done an outstanding job in supporting the Albuquerque District Restoration
Advisory Board at the Walker Air Force Base. We intend to extend our
purchase order with them." |
