Threatened & Endangered Species and Ecological Services

Threatened and endangered species are animals and plants at risk of extinction. Ecological services are benefits provided by ecosystems, such as clean air, water, pollination, and climate regulation. Conserving these species is vital for maintaining ecological balance and the continuation of these essential services.


At Lark, we work closely with our clients to understand what is needed for their projects so that they comply with the Endangered Species Act, Migratory Bird Treaty Act, Bald and Golden Eagle Act, and more.


Our team has both the experience and know-how to efficiently understand, plan for, and manage potential climate, vegetation, and fish and wildlife issues. This allows us to develop rapid, effective, and practical solutions for our clients that will ensure the project ends up complete and all environmental regulations are followed. We assist our clients by handling the coordination with appropriate fish and wildlife regulatory agencies, including Section 7 consultations.


Where quality and collaboration meet environmental expertise, Lark is here to ensure you follow the necessary rules and environmental regulations needed to complete your project.
