Taylor County is planning an ecological assessment for a potential dredge project. This assessment will involve a review of existing data and a site visit to identify wetlands, protected resources like seagrass, and any threatened or endangered species. The findings will be part of an Ecological Report submitted with permit applications. This work is in the initial planning stages, before permit applications are filed. The project will require site investigation and data collection. Contractors specializing in ecological assessments, environmental consulting, and wetland identification may find opportunities. Early engagement could be beneficial as plans develop.
