"Jodie Burns and Cattails Environmental teamed with GeomorphIS on a Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) task order to delineate wetlands and waters of the US on two sites within the Mark Twain National Forest, Missouri. Jodie and her team were exceptionally responsive to the needs of both the FHWA and U.S. Forest Service staff, and accomplished the time-sensitive field survey and report without a hitch. Ms. Burns completed the project ahead of schedule and under budget, much to the appreciation of our FHWA client."

" Jodie Burns was contacted to assist us with a full environmental assessment with substantial wetlands review. Because of her vast knowledge of wetlands and of these regulations, she was able to work through the process very quickly and with a positive result. She kept the Town and I informed of the processes and all options for review. These regulations are very difficult to understand and she explained procedures in a language that was understandable. I will definitely use her services again."

"During my 41-year career as a stream ecologist at the University of Arkansas, Mrs. Jodie Burns stands out as one of the best students I encountered. Things that come to mind immediately about her are her superior work ethic and pleasant demeanor. I have seen her set the tone for a group faced with a challenging task to that of a good adventure when otherwise they might have just seen it as hard work. Jodie also has the mental ability and perseverance necessary to accomplish difficult tasks, as seen by her work with her master’s thesis."
