About CES
Our dedicated team brings over 150 years of combined experience to every project.
Founded in 1994, Creative Environmental Solutions, Inc. (CES) has grown into a dynamic 20-person consultation firm, renowned for its comprehensive geological, environmental, and engineering services throughout Florida and the Southeast.
Our journey began with a clear vision: to simplify the complex interactions between industries and regulatory bodies at federal, state, and local levels; to identify and quantify vital rock and mineral deposits that contribute to the nation's growth; and to protect and enhance the quality of America's lakes, rivers, oceans, and drinking water. All of this is accomplished through innovative and effective strategies.
At CES, we are more than consultants; we are facilitators, helping business owners seamlessly navigate the intricacies of environmental laws and regulations, obtain necessary permits, and grow their ventures responsibly.

Our Team of Experts
Our president and owner, George Foster, is a testament to our expertise and commitment. Holding a Bachelor’s degree in Geology from the University of South Florida and a Master’s in the same field from the University of Florida, Mr. Foster honed his industrial mineralogy skills under Dr. James Eades's guidance. His extensive experience, which spans most of the United States, Puerto Rico, Guam, Mexico, and the Bahamas, infuses CES with a broad perspective and deep understanding of both geological and environmental challenges.
At the heart of CES's success is our team of seasoned geologists, engineers, and ecologists, whose collective professional experience exceeds 150 years. This depth of knowledge and expertise enables us to provide responsive, consistent service and top-quality solutions within the agreed timeframe and budget.
