Testimonials

 I had the pleasure of working with Miranda Adams on a complex wetland site where she led the wetland delineation and navigated the Section 404 permitting process. Miranda was incredibly knowledgeable and communicative throughout the process, clearly explaining regulatory requirements and options at each step. She worked seamlessly with the Army Corps of Engineers, helping facilitate a collaborative and solution-oriented approach that ultimately resulted in a positive outcome for the development. Her expertise and professionalism were invaluable to the project.

 Miranda and I have been professional colleagues for over 15 years in the field of environmental consulting. She has always been there for productive discussions on complicated projects, particularly wetland issues. Miranda has shown integrity and passion for her work, as well as creative approaches to natural resources projects. I'm looking forward to working with her in the near future.

 I’ve known Miranda for decades, first on a personal level and later a professional one. She has always had a strong work ethic with a focus on customer service. She has a unique ability to combine her passion for our natural environment with an encyclopedic knowledge of the Clean Water Act, including the ability to document presence or absence of wetland criteria in the field. This combination enables Miranda to help clients through any wetland-related project from initial planning to field work, permitting, completion, and monitoring.
