Coastal Restoration Society (CRS) is strategically positioned as a global leader in marine habitat restoration.
Our quick response team is capable of handling pollution spill emergencies in the most demanding marine environments. CRS offers deployment response times of less than 24 hours for assets and personnel within Canada, and 48 - 72 hours for international locations. Air, marine, and land-based operations ensure complete logistical coverage for any emergency.
Non-emergency maintenance rehabilitation services include marine habitat remediation, petroleum product pollution mitigation, and aquaculture site deconstruction.
CRS offers a full compliment of marine rehabilitation services to ensure that industry, Indigenous cultures, and coastal communities maintain balanced relationships between the ecology and sustainable economic growth.
