Oatlands Ecology can quickly advise on the potential ecological issues likely to be considered by the Local Planning Authority prior to a site visit.
From the interpretation of aerial photography and relevant ecological data we can:
- Identify broad habitat types and potentially sensitive ecological features (e.g. ponds and water courses) within and adjacent to the site
- Identify the location of designated sites
- Identify the known locations of protected species
- Assess the likely relationships & connectivity between the site and nearby ecological receptors
From this information Oatlands Ecology can assess the potential ecological sensitivity of a site and advise on the ecological input likely to be required by the Local Planning Authority prior to granting planning permission.
Ideal for pre-purchase assessments, this assessment can be carried out at any time of year.
