Wetlands + Critical Areas
Our Professional Wetland Scientists (PWS) and Wetland Technicians are experts in wetlands and critical areas. When impacts to wetlands or critical areas can’t be avoided, we create restoration plans that enhance habitat and ecological functions, meet regulatory requirements, and perform mitigation monitoring to ensure success. Our in-depth knowledge of the Clean Water Act (CWA) Sections 404 & 401, State Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA) and US Army Corps of Engineers regulatory requirements surrounding wetlands and critical areas allow us to effectively streamline project permits. Our proven success with delineations, permits and mitigation planning on local, state, and federal levels, means that we are prepared for your project needs, large or small.
