This site investigation provides information on past excavation, buried debris, wells, unusual odors, vegetation type and condition, chemical storage and or spills, drainage patterns, septic tanks, possible cultural resources, and other items that could indicate areas of concern. Our review of historical information, records and data, along with the field site investigations are summarized in a clear and concise report that enables our clients to evaluate potential liability, if any, of their site's usefulness for its intended purpose. Citizens' commitment to preserving our nation's natural environment have lead to increasingly stringent federal, state and local regulations defining what portions of and how our natural environment will be preserved for future generations. Meeting our societal desire for preservation while navigating the complex legal requirements of environmental law requires a comprehensive management approach to compliance. Our staff collects, documents and prepares report data for Environmental Assessments and more complex Environmental Impact Statements, when necessary.
NEPA documentation is often a procedural requirement associated with biological resource permits.

Based on our thorough assessment procedures, our clients are provided a cost-effective risk management component to achieve NEPA compliance as a step toward completion of their projects. Preserving our country's wetlands is a national goal supported by strict federal and state regulations. Federal law requires the preservation, remediation, or mitigation of any impacts to the natural habitat of indigenous wetland species. BWR has extensive experience conducting wetland delineations and assessments.
