Natural Resources Inventories
Natural resources investigations are essential components in the
design and implementation of successful projects. They set the
stage for proper analysis of project alternatives, and provide
important information to the decision makers throughout a project's
planning, design, and construction stages. Owners today are faced
with a myriad of regulatory constraints and design and construction
options while seeking to avoid and minimize impacts to natural
resources. Making the wrong decisions based on inaccurate
information can result in regulatory disputes, lost time due to
permitting needs, additional mitigation requirements, and an
increase in costs over the full project life cycle.
Performing accurate and comprehensive natural resource
investigations in a timely, cost-effective manner is a key
component of successful projects. JMT's team of environmental
scientists and specialists provide accurate and defensible resource
inventories in accordance with established federal, state, and
local regulatory guidelines, and for a wide variety of
environmental, ecological, biological, and habitat contexts. JMT
