Robin Laine
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

CEO and Co-founder, Robin Laine, has spent over 14 years managing natural resources compliance and permitting projects across the U.S. Along with channeling her scientific expertise and navigating federal, state, and local permits for her clients, Robin established in-house natural resource compliance processes for oil and gas companies and gave presentations across the U.S. educating various industries on how to best manage federal and state environmental regulations. After serving as field biologist, then project manager, division director, and finally national program manager for local, regional, and national firms, Robin is now directing her passion towards Transect and our mission to revolutionize how environmental data is consumed.

Robin has successfully navigated the NEPA environmental review process for numerous projects involving federal actions and funding. Robin has proven knowledge of the NEPA process, the ability to identify project-specific environmental constraints, an understanding of the agency coordination process, and the ability to manage the schedule to meet project timeline and budget needs. Robin has served as project manager, lead field scientist, and lead author for numerous NEPA documents.  She has vast experience with wetlands delineations, species habitat assessments, permitting, and avoidance/minimization strategies.

Robin has conducted many ASTM E1527 Phase I Environmental Site Assessments in coordination with professional geologists.
