GREAT LAKES ECOLOGICAL SERVICES, LLC

GREAT LAKES ECOLOGICAL SERVICES, LLC specializes in ecological monitoring and precision surveying services focused on terrestrial and riparian habitat assessment. Their core capabilities include field-based wildlife population tracking, vegetation analysis, and spatial mapping of sensitive species habitats—particularly for reptiles and amphibians in riverine ecosystems. The contractor applies geospatial surveying techniques, GPS-enabled data collection, and habitat condition metrics to evaluate the ecological impact of vegetation management and habitat restoration efforts. Their work demands high accuracy in confidential site delineation, long-term monitoring protocol design, and compliance with federal environmental review standards under NEPA and ESA frameworks. A key differentiator is their focus on low-impact, non-invasive monitoring methodologies tailored to fragile aquatic-terrestrial interfaces, especially along major river corridors. The contractor has demonstrated direct engagement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, delivering ecological assessment services tied to forest and watershed management initiatives. Their work supports USDA’s mission to conserve native biodiversity through science-based land use decisions, particularly in regions under active habitat enhancement programs. This relationship suggests a pattern of contracting for field-intensive, ecologically sensitive projects requiring discretion and regulatory alignment. Their primary industry focus is in surveying and mapping services for ecological applications, specifically non-geophysical spatial data collection to inform conservation planning. This positions them as a niche provider within the environmental consulting sector, serving agencies requiring high-resolution habitat mapping and species-specific monitoring rather than traditional land surveying. GREAT LAKES ECOLOGICAL SERVICES, LLC is a small business structured as a 2J entity, headquartered in Slinger, Wisconsin. The firm operates without federal certifications but leverages regional expertise in the Upper Midwest’s aquatic ecosystems. Their geographic presence is centered on the Great Lakes and Mississippi River basins, where they provide targeted ecological services to federal land and resource management agencies.
