Ecology

We work with our clients to provide detailed ecological assessments from the planning process through to habitat improvement and ecological watching briefs in ecologically sensitive areas. Ecological assessments are particularly important for projects that may impact upon European Protected Species (EPS). Our focus is on the specific needs of the developer and our mitigation work includes DEFRA licensed activities to prevent damage to existing habitats. Our ecological work includes assessments of the following:

Amphibians

Surveys including netting, torching refuge searches and bottle-trapping.

Badgers

Monitoring badger activity, setts and foraging areas.

Bats

Inspections of potential roosts and foraging sites.

Birds

Surveying protected species or potential breeding areas.

Reptiles

Surveys including cold and refuge searches.

Water Voles and Otters

Standard searches for field signs and habitats.

Plants

Tree, vascular and lower plant surveys and detailed vegetation surveys (NVC).

Habitat Surveys

These can include extended Phase 1 Habitat Surveys and specialist habitat surveys.
