About Ecologists
Ecologists are essential for planning applications on sites that may support protected species or habitats. They carry out Preliminary Ecological Appraisals (PEAs), phase 2 species surveys, and Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) assessments now mandatory under the Environment Act 2021. Their work covers protected species licensing (European Protected Species, badgers, great crested newts), habitat assessments, ecological impact assessments, and biodiversity gain plans. Local planning authorities routinely require ecological surveys before determining applications, particularly for sites near woodlands, hedgerows, watercourses, or buildings that may support bat roosts. An experienced ecologist ensures your development meets its legal obligations and secures the necessary survey evidence for approval.
