Marstel-Day provides sustainable planning and design solutions that enable smart growth and meet client requirements while also preserving and restoring critical resources. Overall, Marstel-Day has prepared over hundred sustainable planning and resiliency studies for DOD and several Federal agencies throughout the nation and overseas, as well as master plans and supporting studies (e.g., Installation and Area Development Plans, Transportation Plans, Utilities Master Plans, NEPA documentation, and facility assessment studies). Our planning and design methodology includes scientific analyses to understand how functioning interconnected systems can support enduring built and natural environments. Our teams help clients develop resilient solutions that preserve and restore natural systems while also creating vibrant spaces for healthy citizens, safe neighborhoods, and strong economies.

At the community level, we support policies, partnerships, adaptation planning strategies, and land use solutions with innovative strategies to strengthen a community's economic, social, and environmental foundations. We support community resilience plans, adaptive risk management strategies, green infrastructure plans, policy updates, community partnerships, and strategic engagement planning. At the site-specific scale, Marstel-Day provides a range of master planning and site-specific solutions that support client programming while also serving, enhancing, and regenerating the functions of natural systems. Our efforts foster resiliency and provide ecosystem services including designs for natural and hybrid infrastructure, habitat restoration, living shorelines and coastal resilience, ecological designs, stream and riparian system restoration, and resilient landscapes. We support clients in site selection, project planning and certification for LEED or Sustainable SITES, and implementation of measures that conserve water and energy, reduce waste, and provide for healthy living.
