Ecological Clerk of Works
At Wildfox Ecological Consulting, we offer Ecological Clerk of Works (EcoW) services to provide ongoing ecological supervision and ensure compliance with environmental requirements during the construction and development phases of your project. An EcoW is a qualified ecologist who oversees the implementation of ecological mitigation plans, monitors potential impacts on protected species and habitats, and ensures that construction works follow agreed-upon ecological procedures.
Our EcoW services are designed to help you manage ecological risks, avoid delays, and protect biodiversity throughout the lifecycle of your project. Whether you are dealing with sensitive species, habitats, or complex mitigation measures, our team provides expert support on-site to ensure that all environmental conditions are met, and that legal obligations are adhered to.
What’s Included in Our EcoW Service?
On-Site Ecological Supervision – Our experienced EcoWs provide real-time supervision during construction activities, ensuring that ecological mitigation measures are implemented correctly and that no harm comes to protected species or habitats.
Environmental Monitoring – We conduct regular monitoring of construction activities to ensure that environmental protocols are followed. This includes overseeing protected species management, habitat restoration, and mitigation works.
Reporting and Compliance – Our EcoWs maintain detailed records of ecological works and monitoring, providing you with regular reports that document compliance with ecological conditions set out in planning permissions, licenses, or mitigation plans.
Species Protection and Mitigation – If your project involves protected species or habitats, our EcoWs ensure that mitigation measures, such as badger exclusion, bat roost protection, or watercourse safeguarding, are implemented effectively.
Advisory Support – Our team is available to offer advice on any unforeseen ecological issues that may arise during construction, ensuring you stay compliant with environmental regulations.
