About RCI

Established in 1978, RCI is a Carson City and Lake Tahoe based engineering, surveying, water rights, environmental, and natural resources consulting firm with a commitment to excellence and a family-friendly environment that promotes a work-personal life balance. Our main office is in the heart of downtown Carson City, located 30 miles south of Reno and 18 miles east of Lake Tahoe.

With Lake Tahoe being such a precious resource and a destination for people throughout the world, RCI more than 20 years ago wanted to be a part of the Lake Tahoe basin community and opened an office at Stateline to better serve our basin clients.

Our community offers an abundance of activities that include shopping, family and fine dining, micro-breweries and wine tasting, music, and a variety of downtown events.  With Western Nevada College nestled in Carson City and the University of Nevada located in Reno, this is an ideal place to raise a family and truly be a part of the community. Nearby are historic Virginia City and the towns of Genoa, Minden, and Gardnerville. Our eastern Sierra region offers many outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, rafting, boating, trail running, mountain biking, climbing, fishing, hunting, and skiing. The economic climate in Northern Nevada is equally healthy, with companies such as Apple, Tesla, Amazon, Google, Switch, and Patagonia finding a home in its business-friendly environment.

RCI’s mission is to serve private and public clients by providing cost effective, innovative, practical, and sustainable engineering, surveying, water rights, environmental, and natural resource solutions. Ethical leadership, teamwork, quality products, client satisfaction, a work environment supporting employees’ personal and professional growth, and a keen understanding of economic and social realities, are the foundation of RCI’s success.

RCI prides itself on supporting our staff and our community. We understand that RCI is most successful when our talented staff and their families feel appreciated and are afforded the ability to balance family and career.
