Gopher Tortoise Survey

Gopher Tortoise Surveys are essential environmental assessments conducted to identify the presence of Gopher Tortoises on a property or within a project area. The Gopher Tortoise, a keystone species in Florida's ecosystems, often occupies burrows that resemble those of other animals. Our surveys employ scientifically proven methods outlined by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) to accurately determine their presence. These surveys play a crucial role in compliance with FWC regulations, providing the foundation for informed decision-making on land development, conservation, or restoration projects.

Gopher Tortoise Permitting & Relocation

Gopher Tortoise Relocation is a critical service aimed at preserving these iconic reptiles when their habitats face unavoidable disturbance due to development or construction projects. Gopher tortoises can be relocated on or off-site depending on the nature of the project. Following FWC guidelines, our team employs humane and expert methods to carefully relocate Gopher Tortoises from impacted areas to suitable, approved locations. This service not only meets regulatory requirements but also demonstrates a commitment to conserving Gopher Tortoise populations and the over three hundred species that utilize their burrows, contributing to the preservation of Florida's unique ecosystems.

Wetland Delineation

Wetland Delineation is a crucial process designed to identify, map, and characterize wetlands within a project area in compliance with Florida's state-level regulations. In Florida, wetlands are governed not only by federal but also state regulations, making it essential to understand the state's unique ecosystem. Our experienced team conducts comprehensive wetland assessments, following both State and Federal delineation methods to provide a detailed understanding of wetland boundaries and their environmental significance. This information is vital for project planning, permitting, and ensuring compliance with state-specific regulations, facilitating sustainable development and responsible land use.
