Pretty much all of the jobs in government have an environmental department with many employees, making $70-150k in our area. This includes cities, counties, states, ports, airports, and utilities. Most of the recent emphasis is on surface water management, (especially in the wetter, more populated areas) and in compliance with law. Desired degrees include Environmental Science or Engineering, and to get the higher pay 7-10 years experience.
