Ahtna, Inc. is pleased to announce that its Pacific Northwest regional office has moved to Renton, Washington. This office supports three Ahtna, Inc. subsidiaries which include Ahtna Engineering Services, Ahtna Environmental and Ahtna Global.

Regional Director Bernie Wong explained that the move reflected the need to provide more room as these companies continue to grow. Ahtna, Inc. had five consecutive record financial years between 2014 and 2018 and is on track for another record-breaking year in 2019. This sustained growth required a larger office to house their expanding staff. The Pacific Northwest office specializes in construction, engineering, environmental, and O&M facility support.

Ahtna Environmental Inc. also recently closed on new office space in Monterey, California. The Monterey based AEI, AGL and AES (and previously AGSC) teams have led the Army’s environmental efforts at Fort Ord since 2001. Fort Ord is a former United States Army post on the Monterey Bay of the Pacific Ocean coast in California. Fort Ord was closed in 1994 due to Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) action. In addition to Fort Ord, the Monterey team also supports environmental remediation work at the Presidio of Monterey, Fort Hunter Liggett, Sharpe Army Depot and US Army Corps of Engineers Sacramento District-wide Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS) programs.

Chuck Holman, the Ahtna Environmental VP, noted that the Monterey region was the nexus of Ahtna’s regional development into a full-service environmental remediation group. Growing from a single job to 39 active contract actions worth over $20 million per year. After almost 20 years in job site trailers the Monterey staff are truly grateful for the confidence and commitment Ahtna has shown in their sustainability and contributions through purchase of the office space.
