Our Services

Whether you’re contemplating purchasing a property or already have an idea of what to do at your site, baseline assessments identify both the opportunities and the ‘red flags’ to guide your plans.

One of the most effective ways to protect our precious lands is to incentivize their conservation and stewardship. Environmental markets do just that for our natural resources from wetlands and species mitigation to carbon and water offsets.

Our full value is realized when we identify opportunities and constraints from the get-go, before the architects, engineers and designers spend precious time developing a vision.

Everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature while respecting it. Our deep expertise in developing trails and open space within ecologically sensitive areas provides opportunities to do just that.

We take a balanced approach to our resiliency work so that we lift up both local communities and ecosystems.

As experts in aquatic ecology, botany, wetlands and wildlife, we’re the seasoned scientists you can count on in any environment. With over 40 years of biology and natural resource consulting under our belt, we know the regulatory issues like the back of our hand.

We have your back when it comes to compliance services, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Our team of expert planners, biologists, mitigation specialists, landscape architects, GIS professionals, and technical partners provide the high-quality, defensible and timely documentation you need.

Being a national leader in wetland mitigation and species conservation banking means that we know all that these complex projects entail.

To deliver the highest level of spatial problem solving, both literally and figuratively, bring in our dedicated GIS team.

Restoring wetland, riverine and riparian ecosystems takes a range of diverse expertise.

We believe in making a positive lasting impression by building a sustainable future where both people and the environment thrive.

The key to navigating the resource agency maze is understanding your permit requirements early on. Knowing your needs upfront allows for smarter, more comprehensive design and leads to fewer changes throughout your project, helping maximize success and minimize headaches.

Resiliency and adaptation strategies for climate events are embedded in all our planning and design services.

When it comes to making sure that your project is built right, WRA’s design team steps up to get the job done. We know that there is only so much that can be represented by paper drawings and digital models, and work to ensure that the contractor builds the project per the intent of the design.

Having been around the block more than a few times, we’ve built close relationships with regulators and become true permitting experts. So much so, we created our own unique and cost-effective Compliance Monitoring Team, wholly dedicated to navigating the nuances of environmental permits.

To work within sensitive habitats of special-status species or to restore native landscapes, you need a partner who really knows their stuff.

To maintain your site within sensitive habitats or restored native landscapes, you need a partner who really knows their stuff.

WRA’s full service team can conduct the monitoring, reporting, and habitat maintenance needs of your project as week as manage stakeholders, marketing and sales of mitigation credits.

Habitat restoration permits often require compliance monitoring to be in place from the get-go. But for long-term monitoring, you may need a more science-based approach to gather environmental or species data over time.
