Regulatory Documentation Development
CSS develops documents to meet the requirements of environmental regulations.
Regulatory Documentation Development for Offshore Wind Projects.
All offshore wind development projects undergo review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and consultation with NOAA Fisheries and the US Fish and Wildlife Service under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and Magnuson-Stevens Act (MSA). We have supported the National Wildlife Refuge System for more than a decade, providing NEPA documentation, habitat management planning, comprehensive conservation planning, environmental assessments, and related support for 14 refuges in 8 states. We have expanded these services to help governments and the private sector meet the regulatory requirements of offshore wind projects.
Additional Projects
Predictive Modeling and the HABTracker
CSS scientists helped develop HABTracker, a HAB Forecast system.
Biogeographic Assessment of the Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI)
CSS compiled and visualized data showing the distribution of habitats and marine organisms, to establish a baseline for assessing and monitoring potential environmental impacts from renewable energy projects.
Analytical Chemistry Support for the US EPA National Aquatic Resource Survey
CSS chemically analyzes hundreds of water samples collected annually from the US EPA’s National Aquatic Resource Survey (NARS), a critical contribution to the EPA assessments of the condition of the nation’s water bodies.
