Invertebrate Surveys
Plan for Ecology Ltd regularly carry out a wide variety of invertebrate surveys to inform planning applications and conservation management plans. We also prepare mitigation method statements to minimize impact on invertebrate species during construction and habitat management activities.
Many invertebrate species are listed as UK Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) and/ or County BAP priority species. This means that they are considered to be National and County priorities for conservation, respectively; other species receive a higher level of legal protection under EU & UK legislation. Impact on these species must be given due consideration during the planning application process.
