Register-Nelson,
Inc., is an environmentally oriented, non-engineering consulting firm
specializing in Section 404 of the Clean Water Act stream/wetland permit and mitigation issues,
endangered species identification and coordination, and coordinating on State
stream law issues. We were founded by a former Corps of Engineers' biologist on
the principles of providing environmentally practical solutions to problems
associated with development.
Register & Associates opened in 1999 as a one person company. Mark Nelson then
joined founder, Butch Register, in November 2001. Prior to opening Register &
Associates, Register spent 11 years working with the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers and Environmental Protection Agency, where he met Nelson.
Register-Nelson now boasts an 18 member staff of environmental scientists and business professionals, with more than 100 years of combined
work experience. To underscore this growth and to reflect the team approach to
successful environmental consulting services, the company's name has now
officially changed to Register-Nelson, Inc., Environmental Consultants.
Our mission is to serve an expanding array of clients and industries by bridging
the gap between land development interests and environmental interests.
Through our long-term experience with environmental regulatory agencies such as
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
Georgia Environmental Protection Division (GaEPD) and U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service (USFWS), we have developed procedures to guide our clients through the
sometimes rigorous regulatory process. Keeping this process “turn-key” is our
goal.
