DALLAS, Sept. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ENTACT, LLC ("ENTACT"), a leading provider of environmental remediation and geotechnical services and a portfolio company of investment affiliates of J.F. Lehman & Company ("JFLCO"), announced today that it has completed the acquisition of White Lake Dock & Dredge, Inc. ("White Lake" or the "Company").

White Lake is a specialized environmental dredging, sediment capping, and marine construction provider with 20+ years of successful project execution across the United States. The Company's experienced team leverages purpose-built equipment and robust project design capabilities to address the complex needs of public and private sector clients.

Dean Pisani, Chief Executive Officer of ENTACT, commented, "We are excited to partner with the White Lake team as we continue to remediate soil, water, and sediment across North America. We have collaborated with White Lake for years and are thrilled to acquire their unique expertise and capabilities. White Lake's solution-oriented approach and focus on strong client relationships fit perfectly into our approach, and we are excited to welcome an exceptional team into ENTACT."

This transaction complements our organic growth strategy by further enhancing our ability to execute complex, multi-method projects and address urgent and growing environmental remediation demand," said Glenn Shor, Chairman of ENTACT and Partner at JFLCO.
