### Key Capabilities

 Ecosystem Restoration & MitigationClimate & Resilience PlanningGreen Infrastructure & Sustainable DesignFAQ

## Ecosystem Restoration & Mitigation

 We design and implement solutions across upland, riverine, and coastal landscapes — helping natural systems recover from environmental impacts while maintaining long-term ecological function and regulatory compliance.

#### Services Include:

- Upland, riverine, wetland and coastal restoration design, permitting, and monitoring
- Stream and streambank restoration and dam removal and fish passage modifications
- Invasive species management and revegetation
- Post-fire restoration and forest recovery
- Mitigation banking and compliance planning
- Threatened and endangered plant and animal species management

## Climate & Resilience Planning

 Our team helps communities, utilities, and infrastructure owners assess climate risks and translate findings into adaptive strategies, addressing flooding, fire, drought, and other climate-driven hazards while integrating equity and environmental justice considerations.

#### Services Include:

- Climate risk and vulnerability assessments
- Community and infrastructure resilience planning
- Adaptive land-use and hazard mitigation planning
- Fire planning and post-fire recovery strategies
- Grant writing and financial strategies
- Community and stakeholder engagement

## Green Infrastructure & Sustainable Design

 Our adaptive design approach balances human and ecological needs, integrating nature-based solutions, carbon and ecosystem services, and sustainable site planning to deliver projects built for long-term environmental performance.

#### Services Include:

- Green infrastructure and sustainable site design
- Nature-based and low-impact development strategies
- Carbon and ecosystem service evaluation
- Water-sensitive urban and landscape planning
- Multi-disciplinary environmental engineering support
- Sustainability certification support (LEED, Envision, SITES)
- Construction documents, bid support, and construction administration

## FAQ

 Does ECT design and permit ecosystem restoration projects?  
   
   
  Yes. Our team handles ecosystem restoration from design through permitting and long-term monitoring across upland, riverine, and coastal settings—developing adaptive strategies that include post-fire recovery, revegetation, invasive species management, and mitigation site establishment.

 Can ECT help our community or organization assess climate risk and develop an adaptive plan?  
   
   
  Yes. ECT conducts climate risk and vulnerability assessments for communities, utilities, and infrastructure owners—translating risk data into adaptive strategies for flooding, fire, drought, and other climate-driven hazards.

 Does ECT support mitigation banking and regulatory offset programs?  
   
   
  Yes. Our team helps clients develop mitigation strategies, evaluate banking options, and navigate permitting to satisfy wetland, stream, and species offset requirements efficiently.

 Can ECT integrate green infrastructure into our project design?  
   
   
  Yes. ECT designs green infrastructure solutions—stormwater systems, habitat enhancements, and lowimpact development strategies—and works alongside engineers and planners to integrate them from the start of project design.

 Does ECT connect restoration and resilience work with broader environmental planning?  
   
   
  Yes. Our Resiliency & Restoration practice connects ecological science, climate planning, green infrastructure, and regulatory compliance under one team—so restoration and resilience become core parts of your long-term environmental strategy.
