Protecting Nature while Supporting your Goals

Discover the ecological services offered by Rowan Ecological. We combine our expertise with a pragmatic approach to meet your ecological needs.

Preliminary Ecological Appraisals

A Preliminary Ecological Appraisal (PEA) is often the first step in the planning process. A PEA helps identify any potential ecological constraints to a development early on, combining a desk-based review with a site walkover survey to assess habitats and the potential for protected species.  This provides valuable baseline information, helping to inform design and decision-making from the outset.

Bat Surveys

 We hold bat survey licences for both both NRW and Natural England (Class 2) and can carry out:

  • Preliminary Roost Assessments (PRAs)
  • Ground Level Tree Assessments
  • Emergence Surveys
  • Transect/Night time walkover surveys
  • Bat mitigation design
  • Development licence applications including the named/nominated ecologist role

Other Ecological Services

In addition to preliminary assessments and bat work we offer a range of other ecological services including, but not limited to:

  • Additional Protected Species Surveys
  • Ecological Impact Assessments
  • Mitigation advice and licensing support
  • Ecological Clerk of Works
  • Green Infrastructure Statements
