Existing critical areas databases including that of wetlands, soils, streams, flood zones, slopes, and fish use are researched to determine documented environmental regulatory constraints on a property. A field evaluation is performed to verify database information and to field locate potential environmental regulatory constraints that may limit land use plans.

EnviroVector prepares accurate Jurisdictional Determination (JD) reports that get results. Our reports are prepared as part of your permit package. Jurisdictional waters will be illustrated on drawings to scale. If federal jurisdiction is in question, EnviroVector will clearly label jurisdictional waters, based on the Federal definition. State Jurisdictional Waters will also be labeled and required regulatory buffers will be drawn and labeled. See EnviroVector CA for more detailed information on JD Reports.

We prepare mitigation plans to satisfy Federal, State, and local permit Agencies. Regulatory agencies may require the preparation of a mitigation plan to off-set unavoidable wetland or buffer impacts as part of a development project. Our goal is to optimize usable area through through responsible land use and through allowable wetland and buffer alternations that include wetland & buffer exemptions, buffer reduction, buffer averaging, wetland fill & replacement, and more. As such, usable area and land use intensity may be increased in accordance with Federal, State, and local land use regulations
