About
Cox Environmental Services, a female-owned small business based in Juneau, Alaska, was established by Jolene M. Cox, its Principal Environmental Scientist, in August 2016. It carries on the broad range of environmental services formerly provided by Carson Dorn, Inc.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Soil Science from Michigan State University (1998) and a Master’s degree in Environmental Microbiology from West Virginia University (2004), Ms. Cox boasts 23 years of extensive experience in the environmental sector, with 5 years in West Virginia and 18 years locally in Juneau, as well as throughout Southeast Alaska.
Cox Environmental Services offers a broad range of environmental consulting services to its clients and produces high quality solutions on time and on budget. Our clients include cities, boroughs, municipalities, and tribal government in Southeast Alaska, developers, architectural and design firms, private industry, commercial and residential property owners, banks, and state and federal agencies. Our staff have intimate knowledge of environmental and engineering considerations in Southeast Alaska, and, as a result, have a thorough understanding of the technical, administrative, and regulatory environment in which projects get completed. We are proud of the relationships we have built over time with state and federal regulatory agencies.
Our environmental services (including those related to contaminated sites, underground storage tanks, environmental assessments, and permitting) are often essential ingredients for larger projects. As a result, Cox Environmental Services is valuable as the environmental consultant on teams for large architectural or civil projects. It is not uncommon for environmental issues to suddenly emerge just as projects are nearing the end of the design phase. In such circumstances, Cox Environmental Services is ready to be called upon quickly to come up to speed on the project requirements and move efficiently to address them. Cox Environmental Services has the necessary experience and is willing to do what is needed to meet demanding deadlines.
