Biodiversity, Habitat, Rare Species Assessment & Management
GZA’s ecological consulting services are delivered by credentialed practitioners with agency-recognized qualifications for surveys of floral and faunal groups. Our scientists apply practical field methods, clear documentation, and agency coordination to support biodiversity assessments, habitat assessments, rare species assessments, and natural resource permitting. Services include site-specific surveys for protected species and habitats, invasive species management, vegetation management plans, wetland and waters assessment and delineation, and habitat restoration planning. GZA also supports site owners and contractors with practicable monitoring programs and management plan implementation tailored to project conditions and regulatory requirements.
