Recover Damaged Landscape

Shorelines, beaches, and landscapes of islands are damaged by developing projects.
This cluster is provided to search for alternative actions to protect the island's nature from devastating developing projects.

001
It is said that a beautiful island is one that looks beautiful even from the distance. This means even though the island is full of people and tourists facilities, looking from the ocean, the island looks as if it is only wrapped in green. When we build streets and parking lots with asphalt, we should plant trees and flowers as well, so that new facilities will not spoil surrounding scenes.

002 Followings aret the generally implemented process which was introduced on O*NET for synthesize complex scientific data into practical strategies for restoration, monitoring or management for environmental restration which can be uterized in small island.
1.	Conduct site assessments to certify a habitat or to ascertain environmental damage or restoration needs.
2.	Create habitat management or restoration plans, such as native tree restoration and weed control.
3.	Develop natural resource management plans, using knowledge of environmental planning or state and federal environmental regulatory requirements.
4.	Collect and analyze data to determine environmental conditions and restoration needs.
5.	Communicate findings of environmental studies or proposals for environmental remediation to other restoration professionals.
6.	Conduct environmental impact studies to examine the ecological effects of human activities, nature, and climate change.
7.	Conduct feasibility and cost-benefit studies for environmental remediation projects.
8.	Create environmental models or simulations of particular ecosystems or ecological regions.
9.	Identify environmental mitigation alternatives, ensuring compliance with applicable standards, laws, or regulations.
10.	Identify short- and long-term impacts of environmental remediation activities.
11.	Inspect active remediation sites to ensure compliance with environmental or safety policies, standards, or regulations.
12.	Plan environmental restoration projects, using biological databases, environmental strategies, and planning software.
13.	Provide technical direction on environmental planning to energy engineers, biologists, geologists, or other professionals working to develop restoration plans or strategies.
14.	Review existing environmental remediation designs.
15.	Supervise and provide technical guidance, training, or assistance to employees working in the field to restore habitats.
16.	Apply for permits required for the implementation of environmental remediation projects.
17.	Develop and communicate recommendations for landowners to maintain or restore environmental conditions.
18.	Develop environmental restoration project schedules and budgets.
19.	Notify regulatory or permitting agencies of deviations from implemented remediation plans. (Russell 11/18/2009)
