Ecological Restoration

Conservation and Preservation of Natural Resources

EOR’s ecological team provides nature-based solutions for a variety of ecosystems including streams, lakes, wetlands, prairies, forests, and reclaimed agricultural land.  Our multi-disciplined, certified professionals provide responsible solutions for a wide range of ecological projects which serve to protect, preserve, and/or restore our natural resources with additional concern for those state designated and federally protected species (e.g. birds, bats, turtles, snakes, mussels, fish, and aquatic/terrestrial plants). EOR’s thorough environmental evaluations and data analyses allow us to develop sustainable, economical strategies in the design of effective stream and eco-habitat restorations.  In addition to our numerous eco-restoration projects, EOR’s team has improved the ecological health, water quality and connectivity of over 55 miles of streams and has created/rehabilitated over 500 acres of wetlands within the upper Midwest and Ontario, Canada.
