Ecological Consultancy Service
The requirement for ecology to be taken into account in projects is driven by legislation which is in place to protect designated sites, protected habitats and species. It is a requirement of planning authorities that the ecological impact of a development is assessed as part of the planning application process, although it is best practice if it is given due consideration from the outset. Brown & Co’s team of ecologists provide a comprehensive ecological consultancy service to support your project, in an efficient and practical manner.

Why Brown & Co?
Our team of ecologists have a wealth of experience working with a wide range of clients in both private and public sector organisations, whilst also working with individuals. We can provide support at any stage of a project, from feasibility through to planning, construction and operation.
Assessing and interpreting ecological elements provides vital information for design, planning applications and Environmental Impact Assessments. Our policy and general advice is to always consider and explore the ecological and environmental issues at the outset of a project. Early identification of constraints and opportunities is essential in avoiding costly delays further down the line. They can often provide enhancement and positive elements to a project if considered early.
We combine high technical capabilities with a pragmatic and project specific solution to our clients needs, that ensures the development does not have adverse impacts upon biodiversity and the project can proceed without delays or unexpected issues.
We have worked on a wide breadth of projects from a simple new build or barn conversion, to large scale construction development including renewable energy, reservoirs and residential schemes. As such we have experience working and assessing a range of both terrestrial and aquatic habitats.
