Conservation Planning
A Respected Land Stewardship Ethic
EOR has developed lasting relationships with conservation organizations based on our land stewardship expertise and ethic. We have restored over 13 miles of streams for Trout Unlimited, partnered with Ducks Unlimited on hundreds of acres of wetland restoration and routinely foster lake associations efforts to manage aquatic invasive species and improve treasured waters. We've worked with numerous land trust organizations and park districts to assess, restore, and secure property. Our team also includes field biologists that routinely complete plant and fauna surveys for private and public clients.
