Civil Land Development

Civil Land Development is a crucial and integral step in the planning of a project for the project owners or developers. Land development plans, permits, and approvals must be in place before work begins on the site.

Isett has a team of expert civil engineers across central and eastern Pennsylvania with decades of experience to help guide clients through the complex regulatory approval process. We are familiar with local jurisdictions and regulatory agencies and provide the necessary design documents to obtain land development approvals. 

Isett’s professional engineers can help your project with conceptual planning; site feasibility studies; land development design and approvals; stormwater management design; erosion and sediment (E&S) pollution control plan design; National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting; Highway Occupancy Permitting (HOP); utility infrastructure assessment and design; construction phase services; and much more.

As part of Isett’s multi-discipline approach, the civil engineering team is often on the front lines of managing the project for our clients, working closely with additional departments including survey, environmental consulting, transportation engineering, structural and MEP&FP engineering, landscape architecture, bid & construction phase services, and more.
