  • Secured Federal authorization and over $100 million dollars in funding for a state to build a major bridge over a waterway.
  • Obtained a heavily contested Federal permit for a major power company. The permit allowed them to construct a transmission line while protecting valuable ecological resources.
  • Modified Federal legislation for a multi-billion dollar comprehensive restoration of a major wetlands ecosystem on behalf of agricultural interests, to reflect a balanced approach that is supported by a broad coalition of diverse interests.
  • Acquired a nationwide wetlands permit for a Fortune 500 agricultural enterprise, allowing them to conduct farming operations.
  • Secured Federal authorization for a $250 million dollar flood control project for a western state capital city.
  • Obtained a contract to build a major Federal dam in the face of bid protest. Dawson & Associates also assisted the contractor in meeting its engineering, claims and funding schedules.
  • Resolved a dispute between a real estate developer and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, allowing a major project to proceed while protecting an endangered species.
  • Conducted a national survey and evaluation of all authorized but not-yet constructed hydropower projects at Federal dams. The research results were a key component of an international electrical corporation's strategic planning.
  • Resolved conflicts between the U.S. Department of the Interior and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, allowing a major shore protection project to proceed.
  • Settled multi-million dollar claims on a large Federal flood control project for a government contractor.
