ES&H Opens OSRO Office In Houston, Texas

Houma, LA - Located at 8930 Lawndale Suite A, near the ship channel in Houston, Texas, is the newest ES&H Oil Spill Response Organization (OSRO) office.

"We are excited about our expansion into the Texas market; it further signifies ES&H's continued commitment to the future growth of our organization and our employees," says Executive Vice President Davian Ploger.

The Texas office is now equipped with a response vessel, fully stocked response trailer, containment boom, skimming units and other miscellaneous response equipment. Operations are already well under way, with a recent response to an environmental incident in east Texas.

Managing the operations in Texas is long-time ES&H employee, Peter Plaisance, who has been with the company since its inception. When ES&H first opened its doors, Plaisance began working for owner Trey Boucvalt as an oil spill technician. He then worked in various positions throughout ES&H including six years spent managing operations for our OSRO headquarters in Houma.

"I am very excited about the opportunity I've been given to assist with ES&H's expansion. We're in an excellent location allowing for quick response time within the ship channel and surrounding industrial areas. We have a very prosperous future ahead of us in Houston," comments Plaisance.
