Nathan’s experience includes gathering environmental baseline data, Phase I and II ESAs, storm water management and field environmental services. He previously worked for the Alaska Department of Fish & Game where he was involved with numerous fish habitat preservation and erosion mitigation projects. Nathan’s work there included gathering environmental baseline data to assist with erosion mitigation on the Talchulitna River; reviewing and editing EIS documents for the Kasilof River; and conducting fish sampling, counting and other relevant environmental baseline data about the salmon run in the Judd Lake fish weir. He also compiled ESA Phase I information and dealt with regulatory permitting restrictions for land use in that area. Since joining R&M, Nathan has supported environmental efforts for the Interior Alaska Veterans Cemetery, UAA Campus Well Permitting, Port of Alaska and Alaska Aerospace Corporation Environmental Assessment Reevaluation.
“I’ve heard nothing but good things about R&M and would love to stay here long-term. I look forward to seeing the firm grow, as well as personally growing in my career along with the firm.”
