Biological Resources

What We Do:

We provide our clients with pragmatic solutions to protect and enhance biological resources of concern, especially when controlling invasive and non-native aquatic plants in lakes, reservoirs and ponds. Our knowledge of special status species, biological surveys, and risk assessments support Integrated Pest Management (IPM) projects. We lead California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) regulatory training sessions and can negotiate with CDFW on Routine Maintenance Agreements (RMAs) and Streambed Alteration Agreements (SAAs).
