Services
Endangered Species Surveys
We conduct specialized surveys for protected species like Red-Cockaded Woodpeckers and Gopher tortoises following US Fish and Wildlife Service protocols. Our biologists document presence/absence of endangered species to guide project planning and regulatory compliance. This service ensures clients meet federal and state requirements while protecting biodiversity.
Wetland Delineations
Our team performs precise wetland boundary determinations using federal and state guidelines. With experience on over 2,000 sites, we assess hydrology, soils, and vegetation to define wetland areas. This critical service supports permitting processes and helps clients understand project impacts on sensitive ecosystems.
Mitigation Banking
We develop and manage mitigation banks that offset environmental impacts through habitat conservation. Currently establishing two pine savanna banks in St. Tammany Parish, we help clients meet regulatory requirements while creating long-term ecological value through responsible land stewardship.
Restoration Projects
From pipeline re-planting to large marsh creation, we implement habitat restoration solutions that balance ecological needs with project goals. Our work includes survival monitoring of planted vegetation and designing sustainable ecosystems that meet regulatory expectations and enhance natural resources.
Permitting Services
We coordinate environmental permits with agencies including the Army Corps of Engineers and Louisiana Department of Water Quality. Our expertise streamlines the approval process for coastal projects, wetland impacts, and endangered species considerations, helping clients navigate complex regulatory requirements efficiently.
