Preliminary Ecological Appraisal
Preliminary Ecological Appraisal (PEA) is a rapid assessment of the ecological features present, within a site and its surrounding area in relation to a proposed development. A PEA normally comprises a desk study and a walkover survey. The aims of the PEA are to identify potential ecological constraints, further surveys that may be required, mitigation measures likely to be needed and opportunities for ecological enhancement of the site in line with current policy.
Biodiversity Appraisals
We are very experienced working with the current Dorset Biodiversity Appraisal Protocol and can assist with Biodiversity Appraisals/Surveys and Biodiversity Plans to be submitted to the Dorset Council Natural Environment Team to get your certificate for planning.
