About Amanda Lee
In 2021, Amanda Lee led the ecological baseline survey for the Pacific Northwest’s first offshore wind corridor, mapping migratory seabird corridors using drone-acoustic triangulation and Indigenous-led coastal stewardship protocols. Her team’s findings delayed construction by eight months but prevented turbine placement in a critical rhinoceros auklet breeding zone, later cited in NOAA’s updated marine spatial planning guidelines. She doesn’t treat impact statements as compliance paperwork; she treats them as living documents co-authored with tribal biologists, hydrologists, and community land trusts. Her field notes include soil pH readings alongside oral histories of seasonal plant shifts from Lummi elders, and she insists every EIS appendix includes a ‘cultural continuity assessment’ alongside species counts. Based out of a repurposed Coast Guard station on Whidbey Island, she runs low-power sensor networks that feed real-time data into open-access dashboards, not proprietary models. Her work assumes infrastructure must adapt to ecology, not the other way around.

- “How did your seabird corridor mapping change Washington’s offshore wind permitting rules?”
- “What’s in your ‘cultural continuity assessment’ template that standard EISs omit?”
- “Can you walk me through how you calibrated those low-power soil sensors for permafrost-thaw zones?”
- “Which tribal co-management framework influenced your latest dam removal impact model?”
