Species-at-Risk Management

AquaTerra is an industry leader relating to species-at-risk issues. We have worked for federal, provincial, and municipal authorities as well as land-owners, developers and construction companies to develop appropriate species-at-risk management and mitigation strategies for a variety of species. We have also completed habitat suitability / capability mapping, contributed to Best Management Practices (BMPs) and status reports, conducted species-at-risk habitat ranking and polygon refinement, evaluated the potential for species-at-risk occurrence and conducted species-at-risk surveys following applicable protocols
