Presentation pdf (3.7 MB)	Native Bees: Ecology, Distribution, and Declines Senior Ecologist Leif Richardson, Ph.D. presented at the Northeastern Transportation and Wildlife Conference in Amherst, Massachusetts on the subject of "Native Bees: Ecology, Distribution, and Declines" on September 10, 2018.
Case Study pdf (193 KB)	Design, Installation and Monitoring of Subsurface Treatment System to Reduce Phosphorus Loading from Tile Drains Stone and the Friends of Northern Lake Champlain (FNLC) implemented Vermont’s interim practice standard (Phosphorus Removal System, Code 782) for the first time. Stone designed and constructed a phosphorus removal system on a farm in Franklin, Vermont designed to capture phosphorus via sorptive media immediately before it discharged to surface waters as a pollutant, and return it to cropland in a soil amendment for beneficial reuse. This practice has been successfully employed to treat water in drainage ditches, as well as runoff from agricultural and residential land uses.
News	Stone Environmental's Participation in Montpelier BioBlitz 2018 We are thrilled to have sponsored the Montpelier Bioblitz on July 21-22, 2018! For 24 hours, biologists and members of the community (including our in-house pollinator expert, Leif Richardson, Ph.D.) banded together to survey and catalog all flora and fauna in Montpelier, while round-the-clock activities for all ages happened in Hubbard Park and the North Branch Nature Center.
News	Stone's Leif Richardson Interviewed on Vermont Public Radio Senior Ecologist Leif Richardson, Ph.D was interviewed on Vermont Public Radio about the recent sightings of the Fernald's bumblebee, Bombus fernaldae in Vermont. While relatively common elsewhere in the northeast, Bombus fernaldae's presence in Vermont is notable--as is its behavior.
News	Vermont Transportation Flood Resilience Planning Tool Receives Awards Stone was honored to have been awarded both the GIS & Data Science Project of the Year from the Vermont Center for Geographic Information, and the American Council of Engineering Companies of Vermont (ACEC/VT) Grand Award for our part in the Methods and Tools for Transportation Resilience in Vermont project. In collaboration with Fitzgerald Environmental, DuBois & King, and Smart Mobility, Stone created a web-based application that identifies bridges, culverts, and road embankments within watersheds that are vulnerable to flood damage, estimates the risk to those features, and offers mitigation measures. The application is available through a variety of web-browsers and devices for free use.
