About Ryan Slack

I\'m a Principal at CEC and also ecological lead of the Indianapolis office responsible for researching, developing, and implementing cost-effective field investigations and project coordination involving threatened and endangered species effects analyses and surveys, wetland delineations, stream habitat assessments, Endangered Species Act, National Environmental Policy Act, and Clean Water Act permitting. My daily responsibilities include managing large projects and staff, writing and editing project reports, designing study plans using the most current scientific methods, and qualitative/quantitative interpretation of project data. Prior to joining CEC in 2010, I have 16 years of experience with other firms in the private environmental consulting arena. I am the current holder of CEC’s Federal Bat Scientific Collecting Permit, which is valid for the entire range of Indiana bats and northern long-eared bats. I\'m also a US Fish and Wildlife Service Qualified Bat Surveyor in the State of Pennsylvania.
