The Footprint Question

You are the first Pioneer Settlement to inhabit this rocky outpost away from your home base of Earth. Your community is filled with all types of experts. You have people ready to get to work on building your new community and society. You, however, have a mission:

How do you design a regenerative living system when living in a closed colony with only imports from Earth to begin on another planet? Your colony has been given many resources to start this young and thriving community: small livestock, seeds, soil, young plants, filtration systems, water purifiers, solar energy panels, greenhouse supplies, lighting, humidifiers, tenting, microorganisms, nanobots, portable solar/magnetic powered windmills, 3D printers, power supplies, and insects.

Working with what you have, how will you nurture this environment to grow and sustain you as a settlement and how will you transform your rocky, planetary environment to increase resourcing while also minimizing your impact on the native habitat?
