Lancaster NY, August 22, 2013- Ecology and Environment, Inc. (E & E) (NASDAQ: EEI) has amended and re-aligned its management structure to enhance management performance and improve the Company's profitability.
As of July 31, its China subsidiary manager, Mr. Volker Neumaier, was terminated.
At a Special Board Meeting on August 21, 2013, Mr. Gerald Strobel, Executive Vice President, was appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.

Messrs. Strobel and Silvestro are two of the four founders of the Corporation. Mr. Gerhard Neumaier remains as a Director and will continue to pursue opportunities in the China market.
