Bernie Garrett, P.E.
Bernie, one of our three founding partners, has over 32 years of experience providing engineering and consulting services to the power and waste industries. He’s accomplished in each of our service categories, from wastewater management, to master planning and financial studies, to regulatory affairs.
Bernie has served as lead designer for numerous RCRA landfill and industrial landfill projects across the Carolinas.
A Virginia native (and Hokie fan), Bernie was drawn to the engineering profession early-on, as his dad was an engineer for NASA (literally, a rocket scientist).

Just for fun…
Don’t let Bernie’s tough talk fool you, he’s got a soft side too, especially when it comes to his wife and kids (two sons and a daughter). When he’s not working, you can find Bernie fishing off the Carolina coast, kayaking with his wife, or on the golf course. Buy him a “pint” while watching a premier league football (not soccer!) match, and you’ll have a friend for life.
IDEAL WAY TO SPEND DAYS OFF
Golf, fish, golf, fish…repeat.
WOULD YOU SIGN UP FOR THE FIRST MARS MISSION?
Absolutely! My dad was a NASA engineer who worked on this mission.
