Meeting the regulatory challenges presented by current federal, state and local environmental agencies requires specialized knowledge and skillful negotiation. Utilizing a consulting firm with a vast amount of experience in wetland delineation and permitting will add substantial value to your project. HSA works diligently to obtain the most accurate wetland lines possible resulting in the maximum amount of usable property for our clients. Our thorough understanding of wetland soils, vegetation, and hydrology lets us successfully negotiate with agency personnel to obtain accurate wetland limits in ambiguous areas. We also set seasonal high water and normal pool water levels, as needed, for designing effective storm water systems and mitigation areas.
Our environmental professionals have comprehensive experience in wetland delineations, mitigation feasibility studies, mitigation design, planning, and construction, value engineering, cost evaluation and scheduling, and environmental permitting for both public and private-sector clients. Our team has conducted wetland delineations and assessments in a variety of wetland habitat types, including tidal salt and freshwater wetlands, non-tidal seasonal wetlands, riparian woodlands, freshwater marshes, man-made wetlands, and ponds. Projects have ranged in size from less than one acre to more than a thousand acres.
