COMPANY HISTORY
Incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia in 1989 by founder and President
James M. Mraz, Capitol Environmental Services Inc. (CESI) provides clients from
industry and local, state and federal government agencies with a broad spectrum
of hazardous and non-hazardous materials management, remedial action and
construction/demolition services.
Since 1990, we have provided on-site assistance to help our clients properly
identify and consolidate wastes, as well as provide a complete tracking and
accounting system which includes all aspects of sampling, analysis,
characterization, waste profiling, manifesting, labeling, land-ban forms, and
certificates of disposal. CESI initiated its Field Services program to provide
customers with on-site personnel to coordinate waste management activities for
large scale remediation projects, manage small remediation projects, lab-pack
and prepare smaller shipments. This program was initiated in response to our
customers increasing needs to utilize environmental professionals for
short-term staff augmentation.
In 1992 CESI was awarded the first of two contracts with the Defense
Reutilization and Marketing Service (DRMS). This contract was for the
identification, packaging, transportation, treatment and ultimate disposal of
hazardous and non-hazardous waste in various containers originating from the
DRMS located in Richmond, Virginia. The contract also required services at
several satellite facilities. CESI was awarded a second DRMS contract in August
of 1992. This contract required services similar to those of the Richmond DRMO
at the Letterkenny Army Depot, located in Chambersburg, PA, and it's associated
satellite facilities.
In 1994, Inc. Magazine ranked CESI as #149 of the "500 Fastest Growing
Companies". CESI has experienced steady continuous growth since our inception
in 1989. We have been able to avoid the dangers of "hyper growth" and keep our
focus within our core competency - waste management services. Recruiting
exceptionally well qualified technical and managerial people to the CESI staff
assures that CESI will always be able to provide prompt, unparalleled
professional-quality services. CESI is focused on managing all aspects of its
growth. The company presently has 40 full time and 4 part-time employees.
In 1996, CESI established a regional office in Barceloneta, Puerto Rico to
better serve our customers in the pharmaceutical and oil industry. Today, like
our other regional offices, this office provides a full range of waste
management services to support industrial and remediation activities. Our
continued success is based upon our investment in knowledgeable personnel and
strong vendor relationships. We have continued our growth into the Caribbean to
include shipments from the US Virgin Islands.
In 2000, CESI initiated the development of
Environexus; an internet based collaborative waste management service.
Environexus represents the convergence of CESI industry expertise and
state-of-the-art Internet Technology. CESI is the first independent waste
management service provider in the country to offer this range of collaborative
business-to-business eCommerce functionality.
CESI continues to provide uncompromising quality and cost-effective and
innovative services to our clients. The dynamic professionals within the
company, whose superior qualifications are backed by years of experience in the
environmental services industry, stand ready to meet the challenge of helping
government, business and industry reclaim and protect our environment.
