Gopher Tortoise Permitting and Compliance
Gopher tortoise relocation permits are required by Florida law before conducting construction activities or disturbing burrows that may be present on your site. An Authorized Gopher Tortoise Agent will likely be required to apply and conduct activities for these permits.

Dudek’s Authorized Gopher Tortoise Agents are certified to perform burrow surveys, assist in the application process for relocation permits, capture gopher tortoises by permitted methods, and relocate gopher tortoises to approved recipient sites.

Gopher Tortoise Survey and Permitting
When a Florida homeowner required surveying and permitting support for gopher tortoise, Dudek’s Authorized Gopher Tortoise Agent prepared the permit application, conducted a survey, and coordinated with gopher tortoise recipient sites to maintain the client’s construction budget and keep the project on schedule.
