Clear paths forward.

Who we are.

Pathway was founded in January 2023 by Ian Ursu and Blake Hamer. Building on over 100 years’ combined experience in contaminated sites, liability management and hydrogeology, Pathway applies unique technical and industry knowledge to provide environmental solutions for our clients and our communities.

Since its inception, Pathway’s team has grown to include increasingly diverse knowledge, skills and experience.

Our purpose is clarity.

From the most straight-forward to complex contaminated sites, we provide liability owners, regulators and other stakeholders a clear understanding of site-specific environmental risks and straight-forward solutions to manage risk, reduce liability and protect the environment.

Our core values.

Safety

Nothing is more important than the health, safety and wellness of our people. Safety is not just a priority at our company, it is a fundamental value, woven into the fabric of our culture and guided by a sincere care and concern for each other and the many others who contribute to our work.

Community

Pathway is part of a broader community where diverse skills, perspectives and voices create mutual, lasting benefit. We work collaboratively to create successful outcomes for our people, our projects, our clients and our community.

Integrity

We will earn the trust of our clients and peers through honest, ethical and consistent decision-making and clear and forthright communication. Our integrity will be demonstrated rather than stated.

Our projects are completed to the highest standards of technical quality and project management. We take pride in our work and strive for continual improvement through training, mentorship and innovation.
