Advanced Natural Resource Inventory (NRI)


The Advanced Natural Resource Inventory (NRI) offers opportunities for getting a more in depth view of what's going on in your community but it presents more of an expense since it will probably require on-the-ground field work and more advanced computer analysis. The following is a list of ideas (though by no means exhaustive) of the sorts of projects a town might undertake to get a better idea of what they've got.

 An Advanced Natural Resource Inventory could include such things as

  • Natural Communities Inventory
  • Significant Wildlife Habitats
  • Water Resources Evaluation (e.g. water quality studies)
  • Wetland Evaluation/Prioritization studies
  • Agricultural Lands Assessment
  • Managed Forest Lands
  • Undeveloped Shorelines
  • Cultural features (e.g. archaeological and historic sites, recreation areas, scenic areas, designated scenic roads)
  • Unique Geological Resources

Contact Us for a list of environmental consultants. It may be necessary to hire one of these professional companies to perform an advanced NRI. Be aware that Advanced Inventories are more costly than Basic NRIs and may require additional data gathering.
