Ecological Solutions, Inc. provides environmental services for the development including U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Section 404 permitting, State stream buffer compliance consultation, erosion control program management, and general stormwater consultation.
Section 404 permitting services consist of Individual Permit compliance consultation and coordination with the applicable regulatory agencies. Ecological Solutions, Inc. is also responsible for implementing the compensatory mitigation plan for the development. Mitigation services include hydrologic and vegetative design of wetland mitigation areas, observation and inspection of construction activities, and long-term monitoring of wetland mitigation areas.

In addition, Ecological Solutions provides State stream buffer compliance consultation.
