Company Background and Purpose

Founded in 1989 by Jim Gove, Gove Environmental Services, Inc. (GES) is a 7-member environmental consulting firm based in Exeter, in the heart of the southeastern and seacoast area of New Hampshire.

What began as a small one-man soil science firm has grown into a multidisciplinary environmental firm whose consultations radiate in an approximately 200-mile radius from the central office, from New Hampshire to Maine through to Vermont and Massachusetts.

GES utilizes classic and innovative field and technological analysis to assist clients ranging from home owners to large municipalities and school administrative units, from small surveying firms to large multinational corporations, and from regulatory officials and management bodies to those seeking regulatory and legal relief, among other entities.

Our purpose is to assist with and advance the highest quality balance between development and surrounding ecosystems, particularly wetlands, and to do so in both a cost-effective and beneficial manner to all.
