Humiston & Moore Engineers was established in 1991 to specialize in civil engineering projects within the dynamic coastal zone. H&M works with coastal communities, governmental agencies, and private property owners, offering services that include beach nourishment and other alternatives to erosion control, inlet and navigation channel maintenance, marina design, Coastal Construction Control Line permitting, and FEMA flood zone mapping. Our Engineers employ state-of-the-art technical and modeling tools combined with years of hands-on experience with coastal construction to develop practical applied solutions. H&M has developed unique solutions that have successfully solved problems under challenging site conditions where there were either natural resource or regulatory constraints.  Our philosophy is that fully understanding the complex processes that cause erosion is essential to designing successful projects, it is also the key to designing projects that will effectively restore natural coastal systems.
