About Us

Brophy-Heineke & Associates, Inc. has been providing top-quality environmental consulting since 1990.  Our company has been the foremost authority in wetland and water related issues within the Memphis area since its inception.  We have conducted numerous wetland delineations and hydrologic determinations.  We have secured aquatic resource related permits for numerous clients in Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama, Kentucky, Louisiana, Illinois, Missouri, Florida, and Texas. 

Businesses turn to us for our technical expertise, ability to navigate the maze of local, state and federal regulations and to provide cost-effective solutions that move the project forward.  Our good relationships with the permitting agencies provide us a distinct advantage to mitigate delays and expedite the permitting process.  In addition to permitting, our ability to provide assistance during the planning phase of a project is unparalleled.  The ability to aid in planning and evaluation of site layouts can not only increase the developable land but can also decrease the number of hurdles encountered during permitting and mitigation process.  We routinely analyze site plans and layouts for alternatives that may increase developable land, decrease impacts to jurisdictional areas and/or cut costs in the overall development of the site.    

To successfully proceed through the permitting process, the development of a compensatory mitigation plan is pivotal.  We have successfully permitted and developed numerous wetland and stream mitigation areas throughout the Mid-South.  Our office has over 25 years of successfully establishing mitigation to meet the requirements of both the US Army Corps of Engineers and various state agencies.  Following the approval of the compensatory mitigation plan, we routinely construct, implement, and monitor the mitigation areas to ensure permit compliance.  Our experience includes the establishment and management of mitigation banks in Tennessee and Mississippi.
