TANNER RICHARD

Tanner Richard specializes in wildlife survey and ecological monitoring services, with demonstrated expertise in conducting field-based biological assessments for federally protected species. Their core capability centers on precision wildlife detection and habitat evaluation, particularly for sensitive avian species such as the Northern Spotted Owl. This work requires advanced field methodologies including acoustic monitoring, point-count surveys, habitat mapping, and compliance with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service protocols under the Endangered Species Act. The contractor’s technical proficiency lies in executing time-sensitive, seasonally constrained ecological surveys in complex forested terrains, ensuring data integrity for federal environmental reviews and land management planning. Their approach emphasizes rigorous data collection standards, minimal disturbance to target species, and alignment with National Environmental Policy Act requirements. The contractor has delivered services directly to the Department of the Interior, primarily supporting field operations for wildlife conservation and habitat management programs. Their engagement reflects a focused relationship with Interior’s biological resource divisions, likely supporting land use planning, forest service assessments, or refuge management activities requiring species-specific monitoring. The primary NAICS classification, 541990, indicates a niche in specialized professional services within environmental science and ecological consulting. This places the contractor in the broader conservation and natural resource management sector, serving federal agencies that require independent, scientifically defensible biological data collection. Their market positioning is that of a precision field services provider, distinct from large environmental firms by offering targeted, expert-led ecological surveys rather than broad environmental impact assessments. Tanner Richard operates as an individual contractor with no formal certifications or organizational structure disclosed. Geographic presence is not specified, but work is conducted in ecologically sensitive regions where federal land management agencies require on-site biological expertise, likely in the Pacific Northwest. The contractor’s market positioning is that of a specialized, agile provider of high-skill ecological monitoring services to federal land and wildlife managers.
