REWI Board Vice Chair
Nick Morgan oversees The Conservation Fund’s (the Fund’s) Mitigation Solutions Program. This program is focused on partnerships with natural resource management agencies, infrastructure developers, and conservation organizations. He has responsibility for leading efforts on Multi-Species Habitat Conservation Plans, species in-lieu fee programs, and mitigation strategy.
Nick joined the Fund in 2021. Prior to working for The Fund, Nick was a consultant that assisted clients in the water and energy industries with regulatory compliance and environmental impacts mitigation. Nick’s past regulatory consultation experience has included the National Environmental Policy Act, Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act, Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, Migratory Bird Treaty Act, Historic Preservation Act, and other overarching state and local regulations. Nick provided project management and technical expertise for multi-disciplined teams capable of providing the environmental studies, engineering design, permitting, and construction requirements for implementing project developments that met regulatory compliance. This often included ecosystem restoration projects for wetlands, streams, and rare, threatened, and endangered species.
Nick has served on the board of directors of both for-profit and non-profit organizations. Nick is the current president and founding member of the South Carolina Chapter of the National Association of Environmental Professionals.
