The Watershed Co. of Kirkland promoted Hugh Mortensen to president and Dan Nickel to vice president, and Jennifer Creveling and Kenny Booth joined the board of directors. This completes a decade-long transition between co-founders of the 34-year-old environmental consulting firm and the second generation of ownership. Co-founder Bill Way will remain in an advisory capacity and co-founder Nancy Way is retiring. Mortensen is a senior ecologist and wetland scientist. He manages the natural resource practice, with work for cities and Snohomish County Airport. Nickel is an environmental engineer who manages environmental planning, including critical areas ordinances, habitat plans, shoreline plans, infrastructure permitting and shoreline restoration. He has led 40 shoreline master program updates. Creveling is a senior wetland/wildlife biologist. She manages projects with Puget Sound Energy and Sound Transit, providing critical areas assessment, mitigation planning and permitting. Senior planner Booth leads private development and infrastructure permitting, including public works and transportation projects for jurisdictions and engineering firms. Bill Way is a wetland scientist who started Watershed to design stream restorations when the field was in its infancy. Since then, wetland work, planning, permitting and landscape architecture have been added. Nancy Way is a marketer who has helped direct and grow the company.
