Extract

Most of us think of the consulting ecologist or consulting engineer and imagine a person who works developing malls, marinas, and of.ce parks. But there are those who will accept other clients. There are those who will work for the people. The people are homeowners associations, condominium groups, and a variety of environmental activist groups. There are many times when a consulting .rm may work for a developer on one project, and a citizens group on the next. In past essays, I have highlighted many of the ethical con.icts associated with development and regulation. What can happen when our client now wants us to help them halt development?
