What we do
Believing that effective balance between the needs of the uman environment and the needs of the natural environment can usually be reached through a system of education and incentive, we work with affected communities and policy-makers to develop effective programss built on firm foundations of independently peer reviewed scientific information. When high levels of ecosystem protection can be achieved without the use of regulatory restrictions, we work toward policies that do not disproportionately affect the regulated community.
We believe that working proactively with legislators and agencies has the greatest potential for effectively balancing the needs of the human environment with those of the natural environment. We also work with clients who are affected by existing laws and regulations, or who seek to prevent policy proposals that would harm their interests. Our goal is always to work toward effective, long-lasting solutions to the needs of regulated communities and the those of the natural environment.
