A Day in the Life: Environmental Effects Monitoring
Follow our Biologists into the field as they conduct real-world EEM work in Northern Ontario.
This short film captures a full day in the field with two Blue Heron Environmental Biologists as they carry out an Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) survey. From loading up specialized gear and navigating remote sites by Argo and boat, to collecting samples and logging data back at the office, this video offers a behind-the-scenes look at the planning, precision, and professionalism that goes into every biological study we undertake.
Environmental Effects Monitoring is a key component of our Biological Services—helping clients meet regulatory requirements, assess impacts, and make informed decisions rooted in sound science.
