Ecological assessments that inform your decision-making

Comprehensive species and community inventory that documents ecological values at your site, forming the foundation for impact assessment and regulatory approval. You'll need this for statutory approvals, EPBC referrals, offset calculations, and any project requiring detailed biodiversity baseline data.

Specialist searches for threatened plant species and systematic vegetation surveys tailored to your site's ecology and regulatory requirements. Required when threatened flora is known or likely on or near your site, or when offset requirements need to be calculated.

Activity and distribution surveys that assess how birds and bats use your site seasonally and spatially. Mandatory for wind farms and renewable energy projects, and increasingly required for other infrastructure with potential avian/bat impact.

Comprehensive environmental assessment documents that synthesise ecological and other environmental findings to satisfy statutory approval requirements (typically Victoria). Required for major projects undergoing Environment Effects Act assessment.

Detailed assessment of vegetation communities, condition, and conservation significance under state planning schemes and EPBC Act, including habitat hectare assessments using DEECA-approved methodology. Essential for land development, infrastructure, and any project affecting native vegetation - determines offset requirements and informs regulatory approvals.

Specialist searches for threatened fauna species and systematic habitatsurveys tailored to your site's ecology and regulatory requirements. Required when threatened fauna is known or likely on or near your site.

Acoustic monitoring that non-invasively identifies bat species and assesses activity levels, collision risk, and seasonal patterns. Essential for wind farm approvals, mandatory under EPBC Act for Commonwealth-listed bats, and critical for offshore wind assessment.

Ecological surveys and analysis conducted in response to unauthroised or non-compliant native vegetation removal. These assessments use on-ground and historical information to understand impacts, quantify ecological losses and review clearing against permit conditions. They can also inform compliance responses and remediation pathways.
