BOTHELL, WA – April 22, 2025 – Cascade Environmental (“Cascade”), the leading field services contractor for drilling and remediation across the United States, proudly announces the release of its 2024 Corporate Sustainability Report. Now in its tenth year, the report spotlights the real-world contributions of Cascade’s employees and their collective impact on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance.
This year’s theme, “Real People, Real Impact,” celebrates the individuals behind the progress—field crews,
project managers, engineers, safety leads, and support staff—whose work directly strengthens sustainability across operations.
“We’ve always believed that sustainability is not a side project—it’s how we do business,” said Ron Thalacker, CEO of Cascade. “This year’s theme puts the spotlight where it belongs—on the people who live these values every day and make a real difference through their actions on the ground.”
Grounded in the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) frameworks, the report offers transparency into Cascade’s goals, actions, and measurable outcomes.
Highlights from the 2024 report include:
- Advancing our first Climate Action Plan, with continued reductions in absolute fuel and energy use.
