Protected Species Observers (North America) Coastwise Consulting Inc. is seeking to subcontract qualified individuals to monitor impacts to protected species during marine construction projects along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.

Protected Species Observers must be National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)-approved, which generally requires a B.S. in Marine Biology, Ecology, or a related field, and experience with sea turtles, marine mammals, and/or sturgeon. Specialized or extensive experience with these species may be substituted in lieu of educational experience. For more info, please see the link below.

Observers who are already NMFS-approved are great, but Coastwise may be able to help expedite the approval of individuals with excellent experience.
