What believers are saying

  • May 2026 ASCE honored Geosyntec's Prima Deshecha Landfill work, validating technical leadership.
  • January 2026 Berkeley awarded Geosyntec up to $4 million through 2029.
  • May 2024 DOE DD&R and April 2024 NASA wins expand federal remediation and compliance demand.

What critics are saying

  • DOE MATOC and NASA IDIQ revenue depends on task orders, not guaranteed backlog.
  • Longenecker integration after December 2025 acquisition distracts leadership through 2026 federal pursuits.
  • A lost West Valley or DOE recompete in 2027 would hit federal credibility hard.

What makes Geosyntec Consultants unique

  • Geosyntec pairs environmental science with civil engineering for regulated remediation problems.
  • DOE and NASA repeatedly trust Geosyntec for mission-critical cleanup and compliance.
  • The firm wins specialized work rivals cannot price well, including PFAS and landfill engineering.

Geosyntec earns 2026 Outstanding Geotechnical Engineering Project Award.

Geosyntec earns 2026 Outstanding Geotechnical Engineering Project Award. Geosyntec was honored with the Outstanding Geotechnical Engineering Project Award by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Orange County Branch for its work as prime geotechnical consultant on behalf of Orange County Waste & Recycling at the Prima Deshecha Landfill. Members of the Geosyntec team, along with representatives of Orange County Waste & Recycling, received the award at a dinner on May 6, 2026, in Fullerton, California. The project, a composite liner groundwater protection system for Zone 4 Phase A of the landfill, is one of the largest capital improvement projects in California's Orange County and is anticipated to result in approximately 10 million cubic yards of landfill space. In support of this project, Geosyntec's Yonas Zemuy, PE; Goodwin Wharton, PG; Sneha Upadhyaya, PhD, PE led its team with support from Alex Greene, PG, CEG; and David Ayres, PG, CEG in work to stabilize a deep landslide in a geologically complex, fault-controlled area. To do this, Geosyntec Consultants, Inc. employed an innovative staged slot excavation and seismic-resilient design. Integrating advanced slope analysis, adaptive construction sequencing, and groundwater control, its work helps protect critical landfill infrastructure and sets a benchmark for large-scale geotechnical stabilization projects. About the Geosyntec lead practitioners. Yonas is a Senior Principal Engineer based in California with more than 20 years of experience focused on geoenvironmental and civil infrastructure projects. His work often addresses landfill design, expansion, and closure, including geosynthetic liners, construction and regulatory support, and project management. Goodwin is a Senior Geologist based in California with more than 10 years of experience focused on geologic site characterizations, solid waste facility design, permitting, environmental compliance and engineering support, environmental investigations, and dam safety evaluations.
