FAIRFIELD, N.J. & NORWOOD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- GZA GeoEnvironmental, Inc. (GZA), a leading multi-disciplinary firm providing geotechnical, environmental, ecological, water, and construction management services, has acquired Equity Environmental Engineering LLC, a top provider of integrated planning and environmental consulting services throughout metropolitan New York and the Mid-Atlantic.
