About Us

CMH Environmental Group, Inc. (CMH) is known for taking difficult jobs others cannot do while providing distinctive client service and satisfaction. CMH provides technical solutions in the hazardous waste general engineering and contracting industry. Since 1992, we have adapted to serve the new economy with a decentralized autonomous team of project managers capable of making the correct decision for your project. Our project managers are trained to prioritize tasks and do whatever it takes safely, clearly, and effectively adding value to your bottom line. As a general contractor, CMH will manage your affairs as if they were our affairs. From conceptual design, planning, approval and turnkey design and build, CMH will be there for you.

We consult on the remediation and abatement of hazardous waste releases on land, in soil and in water. We will assist you with environmental regulatory compliance; worker protection; hazardous waste profiling; Brown Field restoration and development; including the decontamination and remediation of structures on land, soil, or water. Contaminated water remediation system design, installation, and maintenance are managed through The Nature Tank Company, a division of CMH. We have treated over 150,000,000 gallons of polluted water with our proprietary design.

Excellent quality service and expertise developed through many years of problem solving to help to minimize, or in most cases, eliminate the client's risk regarding environmental issues. Risk is reduced when you use our cost/benefit analyses and decision-making matrices for your various remediation alternatives. Our mission is achieved through a flexible range of remediation feasibility characterizations for in-situ/ex-situ alternatives, hazardous waste minimization through profiling expertise, and, if necessary, hazardous waste excavation, transportation, and disposal service.

CMH has provided contracting services for the largest corporations in the world but also favors working for small, closely held businesses, who need an expert opinion. We have assembled an aggressive team of professionals with backgrounds in chemical, environmental, mechanical, and hydraulic engineering; geology; microbiology; and hydrogeology. Each technical team member is a real-world scientist and can effectively articulate the problem and the solution while remaining sensitive to our number one objective, the client's best interest.

Service Areas

CMH Environmental Group serves the state of California, including San Diego, San Bernardino, Riverside, Orange, Los Angeles, Ventura, Santa Barbara, Kern, Tulare, Kings, Fresno Counties. CMH is headquartered in Bakersfield, CA with offices in Yorba Linda, CA.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy is to seek biologically sound regeneration or recycling waste treatment processes on-site, and whenever possible, in place (in-situ) without excavation or hauling. We have specialists who can excavate and dispose of hazardous waste; however, less costly alternatives are increasingly available. We know the difference between imaginary speculation and reality. We have become major players in the bioremediation business by continually keeping total job prices low without sacrificing quality. We maintain long-standing relationships with academia, scientists, regulators, and certified subcontractors to assure a final solution at an optimal cost.

Personnel from CMH have an impressive list of completed projects. Acting in both the prime contractor and subcontractor roles, we have assisted waste generators, environmental and geotechnical firms with all phases of their remediation, construction, and installation projects. With the efforts of CMH on a remediation project, clients can rest assured that the project will run more smoothly, effectively, and on budget. We hit the mark of excellence you require.
