Permitting We help clients work with regulatory agencies to successfully acquire approvals for their projects. Decades of experience and our reputation for applying sound science have earned us credibility among the agencies, and help us anticipate and address their concerns.We integrate with project planning teams to develop a permitting strategy that considers the proposed project improvements, construction methods, potential permitting avenues,costs,and timelines.We often collaborate with project engineers to redesign plans to minimize impacts on biological resources and advance the permitting process. Our services include assembling permit applications,facilitating permit processing,and preparing the technical studies commonly required to support permits. Some of this supporting information is developed through impact assessments conducted for compliance with NEPA, CEQA, and HEPA. Ecological Restoration H.T.Harvey&Associates has been at the forefront of innovative ecosystem restoration and habitat mitigation work since our inception. We provide design support throughout the restoration process, from concept development through the production of construction documents.Our designs reflect the powerful synergy that we have built by integrating the skills of our restoration,wildlife, fisheries, and plant ecologists with those of our landscape architects.We guide projects through the often complex regulatory agency approval process,and provide oversight of construction and long-term site management and monitoring to ensure that goals are met. H.T.Harvey&Associates has overseen more than 500 restoration projects for local,state,and federal agencies, as well as for private clients. Our expertise spans a range of habitats and is particularly deep with regard to tidal and seasonal wetlands, riparian habitats, and arid lands. We also have considerable experience in developing large-scale restoration plans in challenging stakeholder and landscape milieus—we realistically balance competing objectives and provide positive leadership while grounding plans in the best available science. Our restoration sites routinely exceed established success standards and are cited by resource agencies and other groups as commendable examples of successful mitigation,restoration, and monitoring. Landscape Architecture and Planning H. T. Harvey & Associates' landscape architects combine creative landscape planning and design skills with ecological training to create exceptional projects. Paired with the deep ecological expertise of the rest of the firm's staff, our landscape architecture team has the ability to assist with all project steps, from preliminary visioning and planning to design, to construction and postconstruction activities. Our projects cover parks, recreational and interpretative land, open space natural areas, private land, and trails. Clients include public agencies,private landowners,developers,conservation groups,and conservation banks. We work in both natural and urban environments and at the interface between ecologically sensitive habitats and human uses. On sites where natural habitats adjoin more developed areas, we incorporate appropriate natural landscapes to soften the urban edge and recreate natural habitats. H.T.
