We offer a professional and pragmatic service that supports your goals while protecting nature
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.
