Agricultural Engineering

Awarded the International Sunkist Young Designer Award for "significant influence in agricultural engineering through original and technical contributions for innovative agricultural waste management systems designs," Mr. Brian Roy, President of RCS, has helped lead the firm to a position of prominence among agricultural engineering firms in Florida.

RCS is a Certified NRCS Technical Service Provider.

With multiple agricultural projects completed across the United States, RCS has successfully helped bridge the gap between the need of the land owner and what is in the best interest of the environment through the innovative design of cost-effective, farm-based best management practices (BMPs). In addition to having successfully designed and implemented multiple BMPs for animal waste management, water control, erosion control, and irrigation management, RCS also has extensive experience in designing and overseeing construction of animal waste management systems and Edge of Farm treatment systems. RCS is familiar with and has utilized multiple NRCS modeling software, including TR-20, TR-55, WATNUTFL, PIPEFLOW, DRAINMOD, and STOWAT.

In addition, RCS and its professionals have extensive experience in obtaining funding from many sources, including SRF, FEMA, CBIRs, SWIMM, Water Management Districts, USEPA, NRCS, FDACS, and direct congressional appropriations. In the past five years, RCS has obtained $24,421,000 in design and construction grants for clients.
