Large or Small - The correct ecological advice can save you time and money
New build development
Whether it be a single dwelling or a large industrial scheme, quantifying and mitigating impact on biodiversity is an integral part of the planning and development process. Securing timely and relevant ecological advice is therefore essential and often required before planning applications can be verified.

Conversions & extensions
Ecological survey and mitigation is an integral part of the planning process. Providing ecological advice that satisfies current legisalation is often essential to securing planning consent for extensions, barn conversions, chruch conversions, roof modifications etc.
Quarries
Sand and gravel sitesBotany (extended phase one) will always be needed. Should high-quality habitat be found then more detailed NVC surveys may be required. Normally a large suite of protected species including bats, badgers and great crested-newts are required and often these sites are adjacent to water courses and therefore otter, water vole and white-clawed crayfish are necessary. Fish, terrestrial invertebrates, possibly aquatic invertebrates such as water beetles are also required depending upon site-specific features and geographical location.Hard rock quarriesSame as sand and gravel extraction sites but possibly more emphasis on solitary bees and wasps and dingy skipper should be considered as additions to the list of likely BAP species to be found on such sites.
