Metric’s Natural Resources Team has extensive project experience evaluating sites for potential environmental impacts to wetlands, waterways, and wildlife. With a diverse natural resources staff with backgrounds in wetland and stream assessment and mitigation, wildlife management, and natural habitat mitigation and management, we assist our clients with understanding and complying with State and Federal Clean Water Act regulations concerning impacts to Waters of the U.S./Waters of the State and in the protection of other precious natural resources.

We specialize in all areas of natural resource management, including planning, permitting and mitigation. Our clients include various Departments of Transportation including INDOT, KYTC, PennDOT and ODOT, as well as local governments, transportation organizations, and private enterprises.
Construction projects often impact the natural environment and require compliance with standards set by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and state and local agencies that oversee impacts to natural resources and waterways. Recognizing and addressing these challenges effectively and minimizing impacts on natural resources requires expertise in ecology, wildlife, policy and regulation. Metric provides comprehensive strategies for assessing, reporting, permitting, mitigating, and providing GIS services for impacts to natural resources. We provide our clients with creative solutions for protecting and enhancing our natural resources through our experienced professional staff and active communication with regulatory agencies during all delivery phases.
