Ecological Walkover
An Ecological Walkover will scope potential ecological issues on relatively small, simple sites.
Our standard Ecological Walkover approach includes:
- Site survey visit (Phase 1 level) to record habitat types and to assess the potential for protected or notable species
- A basic biological records search encompassing the local records centre and free on-line sources
- A short report including simple site description, brief evaluation of ecological features and a discussion regarding the pertinent issues, with further survey recommendations identified.
- No habitats plan is provided with this approach and this short report format is not appropriate for large or complex sites. This approach may or may not be adequate to support a planning application, depending on the site.
