Mass Excavation
Habitat Management, Inc. is experienced in large-scale earth moving and can perform mass excavation for topsoil, waste rock and mine tailings. Efficient hauling and placement of materials can be completed in a variety of settings and adverse site conditions.
River Channel Reconstruction
HMI offers river channel reconstruction, habitat enhancement and management of stream channel flows. Project completion includes design, construction management, post-construction revegetation, water sampling, wetland mitigation and wetland monitoring.
Final Grading with Natural Regrade
HMI uses innovative geomorphic methods to construct post-mining topography. This method integrates site-specific environmental data in the design process. Graders and dozers can be guided with GPS instruments to achieve design accuracy. Geomorphic post-mining topography designs create sustainable landscapes. We have successfully amended stormwater permits to include this new approach to stormwater management.
