Natural Resource Management

ENPLAN is known for its emphasis on sound science, thorough fieldwork and advanced resource analysis and documentation techniques. These qualifications have established us as leaders in the field of natural resource evaluation and management. Services provided by our well qualified and experienced team of biologists and environmental scientists range from preliminary environmental constraints analysis to comprehensive impact assessment, permit processing and formulation of cost-effective mitigation strategies.

ENPLAN maintains an extensive natural database pertinent to regional land use and regulatory compliance issues. This includes both high-resolution digital aerial imagery and digital elevation model (DEM) data collected by ENPLAN exclusively. These datasets enable our staff to focus our field efforts and provide the most efficient resource inventories and evaluations possible. Field survey results are recorded using GPS receivers, and are incorporated into our geospatial base data. All of our findings are clearly communicated, defensible and well-accepted by reviewing agencies.
