Wetland Delineation and Mitigation

Our staff can provide wetland delineations, permitting assistance, mitigation planning and mitigation bank construction oversight. We can also assist with regulatory compliance issues at the federal, state and local levels concerning Section 404 and 401 of the Clean Water Act and/or the 1994 National Food Security Act.

Andrews can accurately define whether an area meets the criteria of a jurisdictional wetland. In some cases, areas that appear to be functioning as wetland communities may be lacking one or more of the required criteria and, therefore, can be classified as non-wetlands. Likewise, an area which normally appears to be an upland community may indeed be classified as a wetland.

Andrews Environmental Engineering Inc. also has experience designing created wetlands for mitigation purposes. Created wetlands are new wetlands designed specifically for the flora and fauna they provide. Mitigation of impacted wetlands by the creation of new wetlands is a common practice.

We have extensive experience working with state and federal agencies to solve wetlands' issues. Our staff of scientists, hydrogeologists and environmental engineers can provide a cost-effective, technically sound solution for your project.
