<br />employees at its office in Laguna Hills. 
<br />Engineering Solution Services fully understands the inner workings of the regional and 
<br />municipal government process. Comprised of former government engineering and traffic 
<br />managers, we have been confronted with many of the same design, budget, schedule and 
<br />project -delivery challenges that face our client governments. 
<br />This understanding allows our people to think like public agencies and address the 
<br />challenges they are facing with proactive, well -planned, cost-efficient, and innovative solutions 
<br />tailored to your needs. We approach every project strategically and scale our resources to fit the 
<br />agency and scope of work.

<br />Control Board for State Revolving Funds (SRF), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), US 
<br />Bureau of Reclamation (BOR), Title XVI, Integrated Regional Water Management (IRWM),

<br />We are committed to being accountable and sharing ownership of the product and 
<br />service. We believe that successful projects are a result of a well -managed and motivated 
<br />team. Our team members possess a proven ability to establish and implement best practices, 
<br />maintain continuity and flexibility, and deliver timely responses. We offer accessibility to a 
<br />network of experts to address unique needs. 
<br />We believe in doing the job right the first time. Our commitment to providing excellent 
<br />customer service has gained us repeated clients and contracts. We understand the challenges 
<br />and requirements of municipal governments since many of our staff have held senior and 
<br />executive management positions with California cities, including Public Works Directors, City 
<br />Engineers, Capital Project Managers, and Construction Managers. This background and 
<br />experience is important because document preparation will require a high level of interaction 
<br />with the state project managers 
<br />ESS is the right team to provide the consulting services for identifying 
<br />and securing grants, finalizing agreements and monitoring funding 
<br />compliance. We work as your partner, incorporating grant funding 
<br />conversations in the process of each project as early as possible in 
<br />order to maximize the potential for planning grant funding as well as
