Resource Management Studies

Our state is home to many unique and priceless natural resources, which are foundational to a healthy lifestyle and recreation we all enjoy. Young Environmental leads resource management studies that help manage, protect, and restore these environmental treasures for years to come.

Resource management studies apply the scientific process to the real world. We work with you to really understand your resources: is your creek a trout stream? Are there trout living there? If not, what is causing issues? By identifying and filling data gaps, we can come to clear conclusions and prescribe solutions to resource issues. We quality-check data to provide a realistic look at the resource’s health, filling in gaps with fieldwork, updating outdated data, and presenting documentation in a transparent way.

Let us work with you to create management plans to protect, preserve, and restore the important resources you manage. We can help you study, plan, and preserve the viability of high-value resources.

Among our studies, we have helped inventory and protect the following resources:

  • Trout Waters (Lakes and Streams)

  • Gullies and River Bluffs

  • Calcareous Fens (Wetlands)

  • Urban Lakes
