Ecological
Assessments
and Reporting
Menu
Our environmental scientists can survey a site’s ecology to assess the impact of current or planned activity and help develop mitigation strategies
These scientific services cover flora and fauna ecology and can be applied to terrestrial, freshwater and coastal environments.
When are ecological assessments needed?
An ecological assessment may be required for a resource consent application in the case where the potential ecological impacts of the proposed project need to be identified and quantified.
A detailed investigation enables us to draw scientific conclusions about what flora and fauna are present at your site, what effects your proposed activity will have, and what can be done to mitigate the ecological impact of your project.
When is ecological reporting required?
Sometimes ongoing ecological testing and reporting at your site can be required to stay compliant with your resource consent. In this case we can carry out scheduled testing and provide analysis to show the effects your activity and mitigation plan are having on the ecological environment.
Our Ecological Assessments and Reporting services include:
- Resource surveys
- Water quality assessments for discharges and receiving environments
- Habitat mapping
- Ecology monitoring
- Ecological impact assessments
- Development of mitigation strategies for resource consent applications
