What We Do

Environmental Impact Studies

An Environmental Impact Study is an objective assessment of a development proposal in, or adjacent to, significant natural areas or features of interest.  These studies help determine whether it might be reasonably expected for the proposed development to impact the biological and physical characteristics and/or integrity of an area, and to what extent.

We offer a full suite of services for our clients including:

  • Initial Consultation

  • Project Development

  • Ecological Field Investigation

  • Reporting Permits & Approvals

  • Follow-up Monitoring

How We Work

FRi prides itself with unparalleled personalized customer service that extends from the initial concepts for our clients through to the successful completion of the project.  The services we provide can be divided into two key components:

  • Providing customized environmental impact studies for a wide variety of development projects

  • Satisfying legislative requirements and policies
