Environmental Banc & Exchange

Our Approach

EBX operations are conducted through our Resource Mitigation and Asset Management business units. The Resource Mitigation group develops, implements, and manages ecosystem restoration projects. This unit restores wetlands, streams, woodlands and other habitats, and in so doing restores ecosystem functions and promotes biodiversity. The Asset Management group advises landowners regarding the identification, assessment, and valuation of environmental assets on or influenced by their property holdings.

EBX has successfully completed 35 major projects, which have restored over 6,000 wetland acres, over 40 miles of stream, and numerous important habitats. Projects under consideration include more wetland and stream restoration, along with habitat for a number of endangered species. What makes EBX unique is the depth of environmental science, legal, real estate, and financial skills that we bring to the projects we undertake.

The next 25 years will offer the last remaining chance to save many of our nation’s critical lands. Traditional acquisition methods alone are not enough to protect a viable amount of ecosystems in the United States. The ecosystem approach we utilize for restoration and consultation insures that mitigation provides permanent protection of critical ecological features.
