Fisheries & Aquatic SCIENCE
Palliser Environmental has extensive project experience conducting fisheries and aquatic surveys, designing habitat compensation plans and conducting monitoring for a variety of industries and organizations. We maintain specialized equipment to complete fisheries and aquatic studies including boats, ATVs, nets and traps for capturing fish, backpack electrofishers, water quality meters, flow meters and benthic invertebrate sampling gear.
Palliser Environmental can assist with wetland and streambank restoration projects. We are experienced in bioengineering techniques for stabilizing streambanks and replanting disturbed sites. We can organize and facilitate small projects that are implemented through community volunteers.
