The environment is made up of three vital components: the biotic, the physical aspects, and the socio-economic and political factors that interact with various ecosystems.

Entrix Latin America takes a holistic view towards the environment and natural resource management, using an interdisciplinary approach in delivering integrated services to private and public sector clients.

Our professionals have a passion for the environment and aim to responsibly conserve, preserve, restore and enhance resources for current and future generations. We work as an interdisciplinary team to understand the physical, chemical, biological and sociological factors that interact and control ecological processes in terrestrial, wetland, coastal, marine and aquatic ecosystems—and the species and human populations that depend on them.

We have extensive experience in:
› preparing environmental assessments;
› environmental and social impact studies for a wide variety of industries;
› important, large-scale and complex projects;
› and in the management of the social elements with care and special attention.

We work closely with the client, government agencies and various stakeholders to avoid, minimize and mitigate impacts, in compliance with the highest national and international regulations, and providing the best environmental outcome possible, within the following subsectors.

Subsectors

Biodiversity Conservation and Monitoring

We assess, design, restore, monitor, and maintain project sites and natural areas, with special consideration to threatened and endangered species, invasive species management, while promoting native landscapes and the highest ecological integrity.

Ecological Assessments

We work closely with clients and government agencies to identify stakeholders and key issues of concern, develop strategies to successfully address those issues, identify major permitting and legal requirements, and ultimately meet federal, state and local environmental policy and international standards.

Environmental Responsibility, Audits, Compliance and Licensing

We help clients comply with local, national and international regulations and develop integrated environmental management plans and strategies to uphold environmental and social responsibility objectives.

Environmental Policy and Economics

We support clients in the evaluation of different natural resource options and their consequences, utilizing structured decision-making frameworks that result in strong, well-informed decisions that adhere to - and improve - policy and protect the environment.

Habitat and Ecosystem Restoration

We use the collaborative effort of environmental specialists, engineers and development practitioners to implement habitat restoration approaches that are sustainable, cost-effective and strategic for ecological functionality and the long-term management of natural resources.

Marine and Coastal Conservation

Entrix Latin America offers expertise in marine, freshwater and estuarine ecology in tropical and temperate environments, combining a broad range of environmental and engineering disciplines to map, model, assess and monitor onshore and offshore activities, with special care for specialized habitats.

Wildlife Rescue and Relocation

We protect biodiversity by rescuing wildlife from project sites, minimizing ecological disturbance, and ensuring species relocation and release into the appropriate habitat.

Archeological Monitoring

With respect to the cultural integrity and the historical resources of the regions we work in, our specialized archaeological services include survey, testing, data recovery, tribal consultation, ethnographic studies, and construction monitoring, as well as the development of treatment and curatorial plans.

Biotic Rescue & Relocation and Andean Bear Monitoring

Entrix Latin America has been studying and monitoring the wildlife near a new mining exploration area in Ecuador, and developed the plan for conservation and complete biotic rescue and relocation. The project hast three main focuses: 1) the implementation of a Wildlife Management Center for surveying and nursing rescued wildlife from the construction site and nearby areas before relocating them; 2) the creation of native plant nurseries to be used in future restoration efforts; and 3) monitoring the Andean bear population in the zone and understand the dispersion patterns of the population. In combination, all of these efforts assist in the implementation of proper management measurements and allows for potential impacts to be addressed quickly. This program is currently being conducted in partnership with well-known universities and professionals of Ecuador.
