Kristen Hazard, founder, and CEO of Wildnote (San Luis Obispo, Calif.) and developer of the company’s groundbreaking environmental compliance reporting software, received this year's Pacific Coast Business Times Spirit of Small Business "Green Business Award". Wildnote was one of six central coast small businesses to be honored. Read the full article here where Hazard describes the perils and joys of being a small business owner on the central coast.

Wildnote is a pioneering SaaS company that develops customizable software to replace manual processes, helping environmental consulting businesses reduce the cost and time spent meeting regulatory compliance reporting requirements while better protecting the environment. "It's all about radical efficiency," says Hazard. She is passionate about bringing these efficiencies and more to the environmental consulting industry.

The Wildnote mission is to help protect natural resources by automating the process of environmental compliance. The Wildnote product is a cloud and mobile technology platform for environmental consultants that supports a broad array of disciplines, including wetland delineation, biological monitoring, construction compliance, cultural resource management, and ecological restoration. Wildnote customers include global environmental engineering and consulting firms, regional environmental specialists, and mitigation banks. Wildnote is based in San Luis Obispo, CA.

Pacific Coast Business Times, the weekly business journal of record serving Santa Barbara, Ventura and San Luis Obispo counties, created the Spirit of Small Business Awards in 2003 to honor small business leaders along the Central Coast. They partnered with the U.S. Small Business Administration to show off the region’s best and brightest, and over the years, have given out 174 awards to small business advocates, pioneers, families and people changing not just their worlds but the world.

Swamp School class engaged in field training

The Swamp School

Based in Angier, North Carolina, the Swamp School offers post-secondary/college classes and webinars in wetland assessment, delineation and design, and other topics relating to the management of wetlands. The classes are designed to help environmental professionals enhance their skills and expand their business. Wildnote will be included in all of the Swamp School’s wetland delineation courses, whether offered in the classroom, online or on-demand sessions.

Automated Forms with Professional Wetland Training

The Swamp School has the ability to provide the wetland and IT technical support that students need to successfully use technology to collect data and report on wetland delineations. Marc pointed out that many of the issues with the wetland delineation data collection software products arise not from an inability to use the software but from a fundamental misunderstanding of what data needs to be collected, how, and why. By combining the wetland training with the software training, students will seamlessly integrate digital technology into their delineation projects. The newly-formed partnership was immediately put to use.
