Wildlife Impact Mitigation and Monitoring
Impact mitigation and monitoring is the process of identifying how to best diminish expected adverse effects of a proposed project, and then monitor post development site conditions to determine the success of implemented mitigation techniques. The mitigation process is often an iterative one and may include activities such as re-routing, design modification, timing constraints, spatial setbacks or issue specific protocols (e.g. sediment and erosion control, caribou protection plans). Canyon Wren Consulting is ready to work with you to design both mitigation and monitoring strategies that will best empower your project, while ensuring the maintanence of continued ecological features, functions and conditions.

Habitat Modeling and Mapping
Habitat modeling and mapping are two tools broadly used in impact assessment, impact mitigation and conservation planning. Canyon Wren has extensive experience developing wildlife habitat selection (HSI, RSF, Auto-LR) and movement (Least-cost Corridor) models. These models are designed to help identify key/critical habitat areas for selected life requisits and to best facilitate wildlife movement through and around development projects. Model parameters typically utilized, include those found in broadly available TEM, SEI, VRI and DEM datasets.
