Patrick Smith is Strengthening Environmental Compliance Services at NGE
NGE is proud to welcome Patrick Smith as the leader of our Environmental Compliance (EC) group. Based in our Pittsburgh office, Patrick brings more than 30 years of experience in environmental management, compliance, permitting, and regulatory strategy.
Much of Patrick’s career has been rooted in the steel manufacturing sector, where he successfully led environmental programs, working with both state regulators and USEPA. His ability to align compliance with operational goals, deliver cost-effective and sustainable solutions, and his knowledge of the manufacturing industry make him a natural fit for NGE and our clients.
“I have spent my career working with great people who make things the right way in the steel industry and love the fact that I can continue to apply that experience in solving challenging environmental problems with a range of clients, industries, and regulators. It’s especially rewarding to help a younger group take their place in serving the industry. NGE has been such a natural fit and wonderful group to work with; it seems too good to be true.”
As we continue to expand our environmental service offerings across Pennsylvania and West Virginia, Patrick’s leadership strengthens our ability to support clients in navigating complex regulations and implementing future-focused compliance strategies.
At NGE, we remain dedicated to providing personalized service with direct access to leadership, while upholding rigorous technical standards that rival those of much larger firms. With Patrick Smith on board, we are even better positioned to fulfill our mission: ethically improving and protecting the environment and our nation’s infrastructure through applied science.
