Great Ecology provided environmental and mitigation consulting services to J.R. Simplot Company (Simplot) to offset wetland impacts for the proposed Dairy Syncline Mine near Soda Springs, ID. Great Ecology conducted extensive site investigations and ecological impact assessments to map and formally delineate existing wetlands, understand wetland function, and evaluate potential mitigation and habitat enhancement within Simplot’s Trail Creek property. As part of the project, Great Ecology developed a compensatory Wetland Mitigation Plan with a 30% ecological design and provided Clean Water Act Section 404 permitting services including a formal wetland delineation submitted to US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE).
