You should seek an EE's help to align the necessary needed body of knowledge. The path for engineering start from an ABET Bachelor (Master can only subs this in like 2 states) => EIT => PE. For Environmental, to get to become an EIT, there's a Fundamental of Engineer Exam in Environmental when you are fresh outta college, and 4y later a Principal &Practice of Engineering exam to officiate one to become a licensed Professional Engineer.

Check out the two exams and make sure to get courses in at least 80% of the material covered, with each topic is typically one UG course. Unfortunately because of this, there is not really a quick way to get around engineering credit, and neither attempting to is recommended. Remember, Engineers are the experts that easily hold thousands of people's life in their hand with their decision, so I wouldn't recommend you skipping by any topic. A relevant one for you it might be a basic chemistry problem about lead poisoning that go undetected in a waste-water project.
If you absolutely hate literature then fine, go get all of the gen-ed fulfilled with alt credit. Even Physics and Chems can be taken online. But not any engineering course should be accepted without a thorough understanding, and those courses are what build up your experience, and that experience earn you high-paying jobs. Good engineering programs also teach you team work and collaboration, which is absolutely needed in the corporate world. We don't simply just get it; we get it because we proved that we can do more than what our peers can do and not just sit around. But do check again on the regulation of where you want to practice in the future to make sure that you are aware of all required boxes.
