These permits are intended to regulate the amount of earth being displaced for the construction of homes, additions, pools, decks, patios, etc. These permit applications require a full engineering plan, soil volume (cut/fill) calculations, and cut/fill plans, with which EJE has extensive experience preparing and reviewing/approving such permit applications for municipalities as well.

  • The construction or reconstruction of site features such as pools, fences, sheds, walls, etc., may require separate permits or approvals. EJE will work with you to determine if such approvals are required and prepare the application and supporting civil engineering related documents.
