Our team maintains active species permits and agency relationships to streamline approval processes for infrastructure, energy, and land development projects.
Biological Surveys
We conduct protocol biological surveys for protected species including Quino checkerspot butterfly, California gnatcatcher, and arroyo toad. Our field biologists perform presence/absence determinations, habitat assessments, and population monitoring using standardized methodologies. We maintain multiple USFWS permits and state certifications for endangered species work across southwestern ecosystems.

Our habitat restoration services include mitigation planning, revegetation design, and long-term monitoring. We develop Habitat Mitigation and Monitoring Plans (HMMPs) and implement restoration projects for wetlands, vernal pools, and native habitats. Our certified revegetation planners ensure compliance with agency requirements while achieving ecological recovery objectives.

We provide GIS mapping services for environmental project management and ecological analysis. Our specialists create vegetation maps, habitat models, and spatial datasets using ArcGIS and field data collection tools. We maintain GIS systems for long-term monitoring programs and integrate spatial analysis into regulatory compliance documentation.
