Project History

Representative Projects

Wetlands are areas with unique ecological, water quality, stream flow and flood control

values.  These areas are subject to regulation by federal, state, regional, and local 

agencies. The staff at AMY S. GREENE ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTANTS, INC. 

(ASGECI) is trained in the wetland delineation methodologies utilized by the New Jersey 

Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP), the New Jersey Pinelands Commission,

the New York Department of Environmental Conservation and the U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers (USACOE). We perform preliminary wetland investigations and detailed field 

delineations for both tidal and freshwater wetland areas.  From these studies, we prepare 

wetland delineation reports which are acceptable to regulatory agencies for the purpose 

of verifying the wetland delineation boundaries.

 REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

In order to offset impacts on wetlands caused by developments (primarily filling activities), 

wetland mitigation plans are often required.  ASGECI designs plans suitable for many 

geographic areas and wetland community types.  We also provide services for actual 

planting and monitoring of the plan.  Our staff has expertise in the complementary 

disciplines of botany, wildlife management, soil science, hydrology, and horticulture 

required for design and implementation of successful wetland construction projects.  

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

ASGECI has successfully obtained on behalf of our clients, hundreds of regulatory 

approvals and permits related to activities and projects involving wetlands and waterways.  

In New Jersey, wetland permits obtained have included Exemption Letters, Letters of 

Interpretation (LOI), Statewide General Permits (SGP), Individual Permits (IP), Water 

Quality Certifications (WQC) and Transition Area Waivers (TAW).  Other New Jersey

Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) permits have included Waterfront 

Development (WD), CAFRA, tidal and wetlands stream encroachment (SE) permits.  

For projects which are subject to Federal regulations and jurisdiction we have obtained  

approvals of wetland delineations and authorizations for fill activities from the New York 

and Philadelphia Districts of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE).  Approvals for

wetland delineations and wetland mitigation plans have also been obtained from the US

Fish and Wildlife Service and the US Environmental Protection Agency. 

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

ASGECI has performed detailed environmental impact assessments for numerous 

residential and commercial developments and transportation facilities in the region.  

Our staff is qualified to assess the potential impact of developments on such

environmental resources as air quality, geology, water quality, wildlife, soils, groundwater

hydrology, vegetation, and wetlands. We work with the client and engineer to develop 

environmentally sound plans and mitigation measures  that will reduce or eliminate 

adverse impacts.

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

ASGECI has performed wildlife surveys and wildlife habitat assessments for game, 

non-game, and endangered and threatened species.  We have also conducted surveys 

of terrestrial and wetland vegetation communities, and have performed investigations for 

rare and endangered plant species.

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

ASGECI is familiar with the particular wetland delineation, environmental impact, and 

permitting conditions involved in transportation projects and other projects of linear design, 

such as utility lines.  We have completed such work for the New Jersey Department of 

Transportation, the NJ Turnpike Authority, New Jersey Transit, county and local 

governmental and private interests.

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

ASGECI has performed environmental services for several projects involving areas

containing industrial and/or hazardous waste.  We are experienced in mapping and 

identifying environmentally sensitive areas for the preparation of Discharge Prevention,

Containment and Countermeasure (DPCC)  and Discharge Cleanup and Removal (DCR) 

plans for several large manufacturing facilities in New Jersey in accordance with the new

regulations under the NJ Spill Compensation and Control Act.

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

ASGECI has been contracted by various school boards to perform environmental services 

to evaluate the feasibility of proposed plans for school expansions and construction of 

new school buildings.

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

ASGECI has performed work for a number of municipalities.  Our services have included 

the performance of various natural resource surveys for inclusion in Natural Resource 

Inventories as well as assistance with wetlands or environmental impact issues.

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

ASGECI can develop a Baseline Ecological Evaluation (BEE) and/or Ecological Risk 

Assessment (ERA) to meet the requirements for any contaminated site. Tier 1, the 

BEE, is a cost-effective and efficient screening process requiredfor all SRP sites.  

This level of evaluation can eliminate a site lacking specific ecological concerns from

further, more rigorous investigations.  On sites where the potential for adverse ecological 

effects exist, a Tier II investigation must be completed.  Tier II investigations, or ERAs,

estimate risk in order to determine clean-up goals.  We will prepare a site specific 

examination of the Contaminants of Potential Ecological Concern, delineate and 

investigate of environmentally sensitive areas and perform an examination of contaminant 

migration pathways.  We will also determine the ecological concerns associated with 

implementation of the latest remediation technologies. 

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS

ASGECI designs and performs environmental and habitat restoration projects varying 

from construction of intertidal salt marsh to restoration of degraded commercial landscapes, 

which emphasize the use of native vegetation plantings.  ASGECI has received multiple 

awards for our restoration projects.  Environmental restoration at your site can significantly

reduce landscape maintenance costs while providing aesthetic appeal and wildlife habitat.  

ASGECI has the expertise to handle all of your environmental restoration needs.

Amy S. Greene Environmental Consultants, Inc. has extensive experience in the use 

of CAD and GIS programs necessary for providing quality mapping for your project.  We 

have assisted numerous municipal Planning Boards and Environmental Commissions in 

planning activities including preparation of greenways & open space plans, natural resource 

inventories, and environmental reviews for proposed development projects, all using state-

of-the-art GIS software.  We have also provided services to engineers and surveyors on a

large number of CAD projects including; wetland mitigation plans, dune restoration plans, 

wetland transition-area-waiver plans, permitting plans, and stream and pond restoration

plans.
