Evaluating ecological constraints and opportunities for development

 

Cumberland Ecology has extensive experience in evaluating the constraints to future development and the opportunities for conservation posed by different sites and development proposals. Cumberland Ecology can provide assistance with:

• Ecological Risk Assessment
• Preliminary identification of potential conservation issues and constraints to development
• Scoping of relevant studies for environmental impact assessment
• Determining the significance of sites for vegetation and fauna in a regional or wider context
• Identifying site opportunities and constraints with regard to impacts on vegetation and fauna
• Formulating development design and management guidelines to minimise effects on native vegetation and fauna
• Advising on the ongoing management of developments to minimise impacts on native vegetation and wildlife
