Our leading industry reputation is built on our innovative, cost-effective, and successful support for those projects in which effects on fish and fish habitat are unavoidable and authorizations and offsetting are therefore required under the Canadian Fisheries Act. We have supported numerous clients by characterizing the quality and quantity of fish habitat loss or alteration, developing scientifically defensible fish and fish habitat offsetting plans and applications for authorization.
We bring a breadth of experience fostering collaboration with First Nations to incorporate traditional values into fisheries assessments and offsetting solutions that achieve consent-based outcomes. Our experience effectively integrating offsetting options into a project’s design have proven to reduce potential project and permitting delays
