are seasonal bodies of water used as breeding habitat by species to complete their life cycles - fairy shrimp, spotted salamander, blue-spotted salamander and wood frogs and others. Evidence of these species using a pool for breeding can often only be documented through observation during a very short time period in the spring. With time, eggs hatch, offspring grow and disperse, and the pools dry up. Vernal Pools are protected natural resources in some States, and are also considered important to the federal Army Corps of Engineers and local governments. The presence of vernal pools could have an impact on development plans, or conservation potential. Keep your options open by scheduling a vernal pool assessment now.

- Renewable energy projects like wind farms, geothermal wells, and tidal energy projects are becoming more common throughout New England. Commercial scale wind farms were rare in New England just a few years ago, but now there are several operating wind farms with more under construction or in development throughout the region. For developers of wind farms throughout New England, we provide geotechnical engineering, geologic consultation, wetland delineation, soil science, ecological consulting, and construction materials testing. Contact us today to discuss your renewable energy project.
