Dr. Franco Montalto, Principal Engineer at EDD, was named the Environmental and Water Resource Engineer of the Year by the Philadelphia Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers.

eDesign Dynamics' GI design work and research featured prominently in the Department of Environmental Protection's NYC Green Infrastructure 2017 Annual Report.

The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) protects public health and the environment by supplying clean drinking water, collecting and treating wastewater, and reducing air, noise, and hazardous materials pollution.

DEP is a New York City agency of nearly 6,000 employees that manages and conserves the City’s water supply; distributes more than one billion gallons of clean drinking water each day to nine million New Yorkers and collects wastewater through a vast underground network of pipes, regulators, and pumping stations; and treats the 1.3 billion gallons of wastewater that New Yorkers produce each day in a way that protects the quality of New York Harbor. To achieve these mandates, DEP oversees one of the largest capital construction programs in the region. As the City agency responsible for New York City's environment, DEP also regulates air quality, hazardous waste, and critical quality of life issues, including noise.

In the April 24th Weekly Pipeline, the NYC Department of Environmental Protection's Deputy Commissioner of Sustainability, Angela Licata, acknowledged and thanked eDesign Dynamics for consultation towards achieving reductions in stormwater runoff via green roofs in New York City.

As part of the DEP Green Infrastructure Research & Development consultant team, EDD is proud to do its part in working towards the shared goal of a healthy environment.
