Its work spans applied environmental research, site assessment, contaminant fate-and-transport analysis, groundwater and soil investigation, risk assessment, regulatory compliance support, and expert services for legal matters.

History
GSI Environmental Inc. was founded in 1986 and began as a two-person company. From that small start, it grew over the following decades into a multidisciplinary environmental consulting firm. The company's own account of its history emphasizes continuity of purpose: rigorous science, thoughtful collaboration, and a drive to solve environmental problems that matter to clients and communities. By the 2020s, GSI had established itself as a Houston-based firm serving a broad set of markets. Its website lists industrial, water, energy and minerals, real estate, government, and legal clients as core customer groups, each with unique needs and requirements. The firm's technical work includes measuring, analyzing, and solving complex environmental problems, with service areas that include modeling and applied environmental research. GSI also contributes to professional education. In 2022 it presented a two-day training program on the Texas Risk Reduction Program (TRRP; 30 TAC 350), a Texas regulatory framework that establishes risk-based protocols for assessing and responding to soil, groundwater, or surface water impacts associated with releases of regulated wastes or substances. The course, sponsored by the Texas Association of Environmental Professionals (TAEP), covered the TRRP framework, property assessment and response action procedures, protective concentration levels, and the report forms adopted by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). In 2026, GSI celebrated its 40th anniversary. The company framed the milestone as belonging to the people who made it possible—clients, employees, and partners—and described its forward-looking commitment as delivering sound science, practical insight, and solutions designed to stand the test of time. The firm maintains an active presence on LinkedIn, where it shares company news, events, and milestones.
