Wetland Science

We have Wetland Science Certifications (CWS #233 and #240) from the State of New Hampshire.

 

Approximately 50% of wetlands in North America have been destroyed due to development. People realize the importance of wetlands to our environment, and their great biodiversity. As a result, the permitting process has become a necessary part for any type of alteration of wetlands, whether it be dredging, filling or any other impact.

We can assist in the filing of wetland permits to the State of New Hampshire, Department of Environmental Services, Wetlands Bureau.
