Bayview Ecological is well positioned to help you navigate a range of environmental permitting obstacles. Our area of focus is non-shoreline properties with wetlands, streams, or other environmental resources.

  • Often required by permitting agencies. A wetland delineation is a full technical report that identifies the boundary of a wetland and its associated regulatory buffer.

  • Often required by permitting agencies. A biological site assessment (BSA) is a technical report required for development within a stream, its protective buffer, and/or within 1000 feet of a Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Area (FWHCA).

  • A brief site assessment used to assess whether critical areas are present or absent on a property you own or are considering purchasing during a feasibility period.

  • A mitigation plan outlines how impacts from a proposed development will be compensated. Mitigation plans may be applicable to any critical area and are typically included as part of a wetland report or biological site assessment.

  • Accidental critical areas alterations happen. Restoration plans are detailed documents that outline the steps necessary to restore a critical area to its unaltered condition. We’re here to help.

  • We are happy to prepare critical areas permit packages for you. We offer this service for Reasonable Use Determinations (RUD) submittals and Critical Areas Permitted Use (CPU) submittals. You will be responsible for submittal and followup, but we are available to help you through the process should the need for additional information arise.

  • While we do not offer licensed surveying services, we utilize a high-precision Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver and Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software to produce polished site plans as part of our professional environmental reporting.
