Our biologists are skilled in survey protocols and preparing reports required by various regulatory agencies. These include biological resources assessments, impact analyses, and mitigation strategies.  We also assist with securing the necessary permits for projects that have the potential to affect sensitive wildlife and/or habitat.  SES holds USFWS recovery permits for California tiger salamander and has several USFWS-approved California red-legged frog monitors.
