Environmental Impact Assessments

Thomson Ecology ecological consultants are highly experienced at delivering the Ecological Impact Assessment (EcIA) chapter of an Environmental Impact Assessment and supporting the technical documents for Environmental Statements.

An Environmental Impact Assessment(EIA) is required on any major development. Ecology plays a key part.

Thomson Ecology provides ecologists who are also professional project managers, able to help you to deliver your EIA from start to finish. We have managed some of the largest projects involving ecology in the UK.

We plan and implement the EcIA process, identifying and evaluating the impacts on the ecological habitat and species and then addressing these through a programme of avoidance and protection and, where necessary, ecological mitigation and compensation.

We do more than just provide a formal assessment to satisfy planning requirements. By assessing potential ecological impacts at an early stage, we help to save you time, money and later conflicts.

Where we identify potential problems, we help you to avoid them.

Where we identify potential ecological benefits, we make proposals that are not only more sustainable, but also welcomed for their positive contribution.

The earlier you involve us in the process, the better the outcome.
