Newton brings more than 30 years of professional experience to Apex, including environmental consulting for industrial and commercial clients throughout the U.S. In addition to his technical experience, he's served in several operational and business development roles, including office management, as well as market sector and national accounts management.
Responsible for the development, growth, senior technical oversight and execution of environmental programs in and around Pennsylvania, Newton will also leverage pre-existing relationships to capture additional revenue in the region.
"Doug's diverse experience in the fields of geology and hydrogeology will be a valuable asset for Apex in Pennsylvania and companywide," says Bob Brackett, Senior Vice President & Chief Operating Officer of Apex. "His prior successes securing MSAs with independent oil & gas operators and national financial and real estate investing firms were extremely impressive, as we look to advance these business units in the region and nationally."
Newton holds a BS in Geology from Oneonta State College and a MS in Geology from West Virginia University.
Focused on minimizing environmental liabilities and hurdles to maximize client's business opportunities, Apex recently acquired TITAN Engineering (Dallas, TX) and Ash Creek Associates (Portland, OR), privately held environmental and engineering services firms.
