Environmental Management Plans & Consultations

Wetland Assessments

Our staff possess the knowledge and equipment to characterize, classify and delineate wetlands throughout Canada and the Northern United States, allowing your project to meet licensing requirements.

Our environmental team has extensive experience in wetland aquatic biology, water quality, and aquatic and wetland vegetation mapping and identification. We work with land developers, farmers and industries to provide technical expertise in wetland management and delineation and classification assessments in line with the Water Rights Regulation, M.R. 126/87 (gov.mb.ca). Provincial governments often require these assessments to determine if a project is registrable or requires a licence if wetlands are to be drained or altered.

We utilize technology, and our resource guidelines include Wetland Classification System (CWCS), Ducks Unlimited Enhanced Wetland Classification (DU EWC), Stewart and Kantrud Classification System, and Manitoba Wetland Assessment Method.

Wetland Delineation & Classification: Detailed analysis of critical area types, classification, boundaries, and buffer widths present on-site, which may be used for permitting purposes.

Wetland Reconnaissance Assessment: General property assessment to determine if critical areas are present on a property. If none are found, the product is a letter-style report confirming the absence of critical areas, which may be used for permitting purposes.
