CRI
can help governmental organizations at all levels in a variety
of ways. First, we can provide direct consulting services
in the areas of land acquisition strategies, techniques and
negotiations; conservation planning and regional land use
matters; and assistance with establishing partnerships with
non-profit conservation groups. We can also identify exemplary
land acquisition, stewardship and restoration projects being
undertaken by non-profit organizations as candidates for potential
funding from regulatory settlements, including penalty settlements,
natural resource damage claim settlements, supplemental environmental
projects, or in connection with mitigation projects required
by permit conditions. CRI can also serve as a facilitator
or consultant for complex public/private partnerships, or
for innovative projects involving carbon sequestration, mitigation,
habitat conservation plans, etc.
