PALEOWEST LLC

PALEOWEST LLC specializes in environmental consulting with a focused expertise in cultural resource management and compliance under the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). The firm conducts Class III cultural resource inventories, historic building assessments, and archaeological surveys across federal lands and military installations, ensuring adherence to Section 106 review processes and federal environmental regulations. Their technical proficiency includes site identification, documentation, evaluation of eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places, and mitigation planning for federally funded projects. A key differentiator is their consistent delivery of field-based cultural resource services in complex, ecologically sensitive, and culturally significant landscapes, particularly in the western U.S. and coastal regions. The contractor maintains a strong, recurring relationship with the Department of the Interior, primarily supporting the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and other land management bureaus in conducting cultural surveys on public lands. They also serve the Department of Defense on installations requiring historic property assessments, including military bases and coastal defense areas. Additional work for the Department of Agriculture reflects engagement with forested and rural federal tracts, indicating broad experience across multiple federal land management regimes. Their primary industry focus is environmental consulting services (NAICS 541620), with secondary engagement in social science research and other technical consulting (NAICS 541720 and 541690). This positions them as a niche provider of compliance-driven, field-intensive cultural resource services rather than broad-spectrum environmental engineering. They are strategically aligned with federal land stewardship and defense infrastructure programs requiring rigorous cultural heritage documentation. PALEOWEST LLC is a small, privately held entity based in Phoenix, Arizona, with no federal certifications on record. Their operational footprint is defined by project-based fieldwork across federal jurisdictions, particularly in the western and southern U.S., where they deliver on-the-ground expertise for culturally sensitive federal projects.
