<br /> Through the combination of interests, education and experience, Mike has developed a strong reputation for solid
<br /> natural resource research, innovative environmental design solutions, thorough construction inspection and insightful post-
<br /> construction monitoring. He has demonstrated the ability to deliver complex projects within the estimated timeframe, and has
<br /> developed strong working relationships with a wide variety of regulatory and resource agency staff members. Additionally,
<br /> Mike also provides an enthusiastic and creative approach to problem-solving, based upon knowledge of the regulations and
<br /> regulatory processes, integrated with the needs of the client and responsiible stewardship of the resource.
<br /> Mike has successfully received both State and Federal concurrence for X11 of his delineation projects. Mike's
<br /> compensatory mitigation designs have often integrated wetland needs with other resource needs, such as threatened and
<br /> endangered plant population conservation zones and fish habitat mitigation. Mike has participated in many major projects of
<br /> local and statewide importance, such as providing delineation services for over 600 acres in the West Eugene area, including
<br /> delineation and rare plant survey services for expansion of the second largest airpoR in the state; providing delineation and
<br /> compensatory design services for widening of 15 miles of Interstate 5 for the Oregon Department of Transportation; providing
<br /> compensatory design services for realignment of 7 miles of State Highway 20, which integrated coastal salmon habitat needs
<br />
<br /> with wetland mitigation requirements; and providing compensatory design and construction monitoring services for a 46 acre
<br />
<br /> wetland mitigation bank site.
<br /> In addition, Mike has co-authored the Guide to Wetland Issues for Transportation Designers for the American
<br /> Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials. This publication was issued in September 1996 and has been
<br /> distn'buted nationally, receiving very strong praise from a varied audience. Mike is currently working on a private wetland
<br /> mitigation bank at his 47 acre farm in the Coyote Creek basin southwest of Eugene and has embarked upon his own business
<br /> enterprise, Coyote Creek Environmental Services.
