Pearson Construction Company has mandated that the protection of the environment is an important element of its corporate policy. The commitment of Pearson leadership to fulfill this mandate is evidenced in the following:

Pearson routinely segregates construction waste for recycling when applicable on project job sites. This material is sent to recycling facilities or used in recycling programs and diverted from landfills. Proper soil erosion measures are utilized, safeguarding streams and rivers from fine sediments that can upset their ecosystems. When constructing projects in environmentally sensitive areas, such as critical dunes or wetlands, Pearson personnel works with local, state, and federal agencies to ensure strict enforcement of all applicable laws, ordinances, and directives.

Pearson has instituted an in-house recycling program, including collecting paper products, metal cans and containers, empty ink cartridges as well as purchasing recycled office supplies.

Energy management has always been a focus for Pearson. Reducing energy costs has been a long term program and vigilant stewardship that has been handed down through generations of Pearson leadership.

One of the keys to the success of Pearson Construction Company has been the individuals who manage and construct its projects. Training and upgrading professional skills is a cornerstone of the Pearson culture. Pearson is currently in the process of obtaining LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) professional certifications for individuals within the construction and architectural companies. LEED promotes a whole-building approach to sustainability by recognizing performance in five key areas of human and environmental health: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality.
