DSL Mitigation
Monitoring Coordination
For landowners and developers who hold an active DSL permit with monitoring conditions. We manage your annual reporting cycle so you do not miss a filing deadline.
Most permit holders are unaware that DSL monitoring conditions exist until a compliance letter arrives.
When Oregon DSL issues a removal-fill permit with wetland mitigation requirements, the permit typically includes monitoring conditions: annual field assessments, success criteria check-ins, photo documentation, and written reports submitted to DSL — usually for 3 to 5 years post-construction. These are real obligations with real deadlines. Missing a monitoring year creates a compliance record that is costly and time-consuming to correct.
Most permit holders — developers who have moved on to subsequent projects, landowners who completed coastal construction years ago, HOAs with wetland buffer easements — lack the time or regulatory knowledge to manage this themselves. That is what this service exists to address.
We Manage Your Monitoring Calendar. You Move Forward.
Engagement begins with a one-time setup that extracts your permit obligations and constructs a monitoring calendar. From there, we coordinate each annual cycle — scheduling, field visits, report preparation, and DSL submission — without requiring you to track deadlines.
Setup — One-Time
- Review your DSL permit conditions and extract all monitoring obligations
- Identify success criteria, reporting deadlines, and DSL project manager contact
- Identify and contract a licensed Professional Wetland Scientist (PWS) for annual field monitoring
- Build a monitoring schedule calendar for the remaining permit term
- Set up project folder and agency tracking matrix
Annual Monitoring Report — Per Year
- Coordinate annual field monitoring visit with licensed PWS
- Review monitoring data, photos, and vegetation transect results
- Prepare annual DSL monitoring report: as-built comparison, success criteria evaluation, photo documentation, adaptive management summary
- Submit report to DSL via ePermitting portal
- Log submission confirmation and DSL response
What We Coordinate
- Mamook coordination + report preparation
- Licensed PWS field monitoring — subcontracted, site-dependent
- Scoped at engagement based on site size, access, and permit term remaining
