About Cascade Environmental Solutions
Cascade Environmental Solutions is a Pacific Northwest environmental consulting firm headquartered at 7302 N. Richmond Ave., Portland, OR 97203 (St. Johns neighborhood), founded in 2011 as a certified woman-owned business serving Oregon and Washington. The firm is led by Jennifer Levy (Principal/Owner) with Emilie Saks-Webb as Director of Operations and Kaitlyn Allegretti as staff Geologist. The team has over 70 years of combined experience in environmental risk assessment, remediation, and compliance — with a niche focus on developers, forestland owners, and port/harbor properties.
Cascade Environmental Solutions is a distinct firm from the larger national Cascade Drilling / Cascade Environmental LLC. The two share part of a name but are unrelated. This page profiles the Portland, OR woman-owned firm.
The combination of certifications carried by Cascade is unusually broad for a regional firm and signals diversity-procurement readiness:
- Washington DBE (Disadvantaged Business Enterprise)
- Oregon COBID — certified across DBE, ESB (Emerging Small Business), and WBE (Women Business Enterprise)
- SBA EDWOSB (Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business)
- SBA SDB (Small Disadvantaged Business)
- SBA WBE / WOSB (Women-Owned Small Business)
For institutional buyers, public agencies, or sponsors with formal supplier-diversity requirements, this is a useful single-firm path to meeting diversity-spend goals while still getting solid Pacific Northwest environmental expertise.

- Registered/Licensed Geologist and Hydrogeologist — credentialed for state regulatory submissions

Full Service Stack
Cascade provides a comprehensive environmental due-diligence and remediation scope:
- Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ASTM E1527-21 / AAI-compliant)
- Phase II ESAs — soil and groundwater sampling and laboratory analysis
- Site Characterization — for properties with documented or suspected contamination

- In-situ Oxidation — chemical treatment for petroleum and chlorinated solvents
- Permitting and Compliance — state and federal regulatory programs
- Litigation Support — environmental dispute and cost-recovery work
Niche Specialty Practices
Cascade publicly highlights four specialty practice areas:
- Development and construction oversight — supporting Pacific Northwest CRE developers from acquisition through construction
- Brownfield cleanup and remediation — including Oregon DEQ Voluntary Cleanup Program and Washington Ecology MTCA program work
- Forestland assessments — environmental due diligence for timber and forestland transactions (uncommon specialty)
- Ports and harbors — environmental compliance and remediation for waterfront and maritime properties
The forestland and ports/harbors specialties are particularly meaningful in the Pacific Northwest where these property types are common and most environmental consultants don’t have repeat experience with them.
Service Area
Cascade serves Oregon and Washington from its Portland-area headquarters. For Pacific Northwest CRE buyers, this regional focus means staff with deep familiarity with:
- Oregon DEQ (Department of Environmental Quality) — voluntary cleanup, source-water protection, UST programs
- Washington Department of Ecology — MTCA (Model Toxics Control Act) cleanup, NPDES, dangerous waste
- Local AHJs — Portland Metro, Multnomah / Washington / Clackamas counties; King / Pierce / Snohomish counties in WA
Best For
- Oregon and Washington commercial real estate transactions — regional regulatory depth
- Buyers with diversity-spend / supplier-diversity procurement requirements — multi-certification stack
- Brownfield acquisitions under OR DEQ or WA MTCA programs — established VCP relationships
- Forestland and timber-property transactions — niche specialty
- Port, harbor, and waterfront CRE — niche specialty
- Pacific Northwest development projects — construction oversight alongside Phase 1 ESA
- Properties needing bio-remediation or in-situ chemical treatment — full remediation capability
- Vapor intrusion-impacted sites — vapor assessment specialty
