Mallard, Inc. (Mallard) was established in 1996 as a woman owned and operated full service environmental consulting, Licensed Engineering and Geology business.  The vision of the owner was to provide clients with old-fashioned quality and service with ethics, keeping cost low regardless to the type of project or client.  The owner never intended to grow Mallard large, she committed to keep Mallard small, to assure quality, and to always available to clients.   The owner stayed directly involved, dealing with the clients, the regulators, and conducting field activities.  The company was started out of passion and desire.  Believing she was called to this profession, from birth, being raised on a farm, in a rural county located in Northwest Florida, she was taught the importance of being fruitful, the importance of clean pure water, good soil.

Mallard’s services included Phase I/II assessments, Contamination Assessment, Remedial Design, Remedial Installation, Remedial Operation and Maintenance, and water quality monitoring.

These services were provided for petroleum, non-hazardous, and hazardous sites. Clients consisted of Banks, Realtors, Developers, Florida Department of Agriculture, Florida Division of Forestry, Florida Department of Environmental Protection, United States Military, County Government, City Government, Attorneys, Class I and C & D Landfills, Private Property Owners, Petroleum Site Owners, Petroleum Companies, Florida Water Management Districts, Mining Owners, Dairy Farms, Row Crop Farms, and National Consulting Firms.

The owner of Mallard held, and holds numerous certifications and licenses, gaining knowledge and wisdom through direct experience over the years, with the vision of being able to focus more in the future on Agriculture, Private Landowners, Water Quality and Services.

Since its beginning in 1996, Mallard has witnessed the changes in Government, rules & regulations, booming abundance of work when the economy was good, and the lack of work when the economy declined or when disasters struck.

Being directly involved with environmental, surface water, and groundwater, the owner could see what was happening concerning water quality related issues, the ever-changing regulations and policies that affect private citizens, businesses of all types, and most of all the agricultural industry and rural communities.

In 2017, the owner of Mallard began making decisions, tough choices for the future of Mallard and her career. Resigning as a Petroleum Cleanup Contractor with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection after 20 years, assisting non-program, larger clients with locating another company to carry out services, the owner began focusing on how to take her knowledge and wisdom, first hand experiences of the environmental side, combine it with being a licensed driller and experience in water well, ground and surface water, to provide services for lenders, real estate companies, land developers, private well owners, the agriculture industry, and rural areas, with reasonable cost of services as a way to assist in protection of liability by offering tailored environmental assessments, assure clean pure water, and assistance with changes in requirements of regulations.

After much time spent doing research and planning, listing services based upon firsthand field experience, education, license, certifications, experience in dealing with Federal, State, and Local Governments, Mallard has developed a set of services that provide services for Commercial and Private Property Owners, Real Estate Companies, Multi Housing Owners, Private Water Well Owners, Agriculture Industry, Consulting Firms, Water Well Drilling Companies, Banks, Credit Unions and Disaster Response needs.

Our mission is to do our part to assist in the protection of liability concerning risk with land, assure that our future generations have quality water through testing, rehabilitation, and education.
