Increasingly stringent legislation designed to protect habitats and wildlife, coupled with the ever-present pressures exerted by industry, can result in the potential for conflict between the two.

Within the Company we have key experience in a range of ecological disciplines, which enables us to provide a fully integrated service, from initial surveying and project planning, through to project supervision and delivery. The services we can provide include:

Ecological Surveys - Surveys can be undertaken using the following methodology :-

• NVC surveys
• phase I and II habitat surveys
• river corridor surveys
• coastal or inter-tidal zone surveys
• specialist surveys, e.g. birds, mammals, invertebrates, etc
• GIS

Management Plans

We can undertake the design and specification of practical management schemes to support grant applications, for habitat restoration or ecological enhancement, the latter often species-specific in nature.

Environmental Impact Assessment

We can assess a wide range of ecologically oriented environmental impacts, and carry out feasibility studies and development appraisals, specifically related towards the ecology of areas that may potentially be adversely affected.

Landscape Design & Planning

Conservation projects, such as habitat creation and restoration schemes, using native species and natural materials, can be detailed and delivered by our team.
