Ecological restoration
Certified Ecological Restoration Practitioner Jennifer Payne and the team of Sandia ecologists help Sandia uphold its commitment to protect land leased from Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, and land withdrawn from the U.S. Forest Service. After construction projects, the team stabilizes the soil and re-establish the natural habitat, which benefits wildlife who use the area for cover, forage and breeding.
“I think people would be surprised and impressed to know the lengths we go to protect the environment,” said stormwater program lead John Kay.
