Innovative, Cost-Effective Approaches

Terraphase specializes in planning, permitting and designing multidisciplinary projects in aquatic environments. Our experts have implemented these multi-objective projects and restored tidal and freshwater wetland systems. We specialize in developing consensus among stakeholders and regulators to develop creative mitigation projects that have allowed our clients’ projects to proceed without interruption. Terraphase engineers and geologists have developed innovative approaches to mitigation for wetland fill projects that have saved our clients millions of dollars in mitigation costs.

Our experts have obtained permits in tidal and freshwater environments from US Army Corps of Engineers, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, California Regional Water Quality Control Boards, Bay Conservation and Development Commission, and various other local agencies. Our team has developed strong working relationships with these agencies as well as resource agencies such as the United States Fish and Wildlife Service and National Marine Fisheries Service.

Our experience allows us to provide clients and stakeholders with accurate evaluations of permitting costs and scheduling as well as associated costs for mitigation planning, implementation and monitoring.
