Therefore, we are expanding our expertise and technical capabilities to support these initiatives,” said Jeffrey P. Jaros, COO and EVP at NTH Consultants. “Rob is an important strategic hire for us due to his extensive background in renewable energy projects, including NEPA compliance, habitat restoration and more. We look forward to his help in strengthening our renewable energy initiatives.”
