2020 JEO Environmental Sciences Calendar

8 min read

Anyone living in the Midwest knows that seasonal weather can drive the activities of your daily and professional life. As an AEC professional, winter provides an opportunity to get caught up on paperwork and prepare for the next construction season, whereas summer and fall are used to the fullest to get projects constructed and field work complete.

Similar to the changes we embrace as seasons shift, many animals and habitats undergo changes you need to be aware of. Forget them, and your project could be derailed before it even begins. To help you keep track of all things environmental  permitting, migratory seasons, and seasonal foliage considerations – we built the calendar below. Happy construction season!
