AEG SUMMARY In 1993 a University of Michigan student interned for a young Western Michigan University environmental professional in a new and quickly growing industry. In a few short years, Jeff Heydanek developed a business plan and convinced Scott Staber that venturing out on their own was the right thing to do. With Jeff's youthful energy and business prowess combined with Scott's affinity to sales and a few contacts, the plan went into action on October 6, 1995. In the few decades since beginning in a 60 sf basement office in Canton, Michigan, J. Scott Environmental (Jeff & Scott) has grown into a multi-million dollar environmental consulting, testing and technical company, servicing all of Michigan and the Midwest.
