I would start by looking for an environmental firm (google - pipeline survey, environmental survey, etc) in your area. See if they are hiring and try to get in without additional educational expense. Otherwise you'll need to get some education in environmental sciences. If you market yourself to the survey firms well, they may see a potential in you to help them long term. Someone with knowledge (or can research) of local history and training in archeology and/or environment and can do the field work would be of some value to a consulting firm.
You have to figure out your objective. Do you want to put your history digree to any use at all? Or you just want to have a good job and enjoy history as a hobby?
