"RES is excited to welcome the entire Angler Environmental team. Angler Environmental has a tremendous reputation in the water resource sector delivering innovative solutions to preserve and protect watershed ecosystems," said Elliott Bouillion, president and CEO, RES. "The addition of Angler bolsters RES’ ability to deliver comprehensive ecological solutions by integrating ecological construction, environmental inspections and maintenance, shoreline stabilization, stream design, and stormwater and TMDL compliance with RES’ current capabilities."
"We are delighted to join RES," said Lee Goodwin and Don Seaborn, founders of Angler Environmental.
