Hi! I'm Mary Szafraniec, Director of Water Quality Initiatives at (Resource Environmental Solutions) RES. My background and expertise over the last 20 years has focused on water quality restoration for springs, streams, rivers, lakes, and estuaries. My goal is to help advance the state of our scientific understanding and to apply innovative and cost-effective solutions to measurably improve our impaired surface and groundwater systems.
As the nation’s largest nature-based solutions company, RES is restoring a resilient earth for a modern world, project by project. RES creates durable, resilient natural infrastructure for communities through solutions for environmental mitigation, stormwater and water quality, and climate and flooding resilience.
RES has a unique operating model for delivering ecological mitigation and restoration projects, based on science-led design, full delivery, and long-term performance. From headwaters to coastal shores, RES designs, builds, and sustains sites that preserve the environmental balance, lifting impaired ecosystems to restored health and ultimately, self-sufficiency. These projects restore sensitive wetland, prairie, and species habitats as well as floodplains, streams, river valleys, and coastal and tidal systems. The result is nature-based systems that cleanse water, shelter wildlife, buffer storms, and sequester carbon from the atmosphere.
