What is a Preliminary Ecology Appraisal in Bradford?

We recently conducted a Preliminary Ecological Appraisal in Bradford. A PEA is also known as the extended phase 1 habitat survey (PH1). These reports help to identify the presence of animals and plants in a specific area. A Preliminary Ecology Appraisal in Bradford is usually requested at the start of your planning process and should be carried out prior to the disturbance of any ecological features on site as a result of your development project. Our PRA will detail and catalogue everything of biodiversity value on site. This is completed with the aim of confirming both the presence and absence of any ecological features on site. However, if no species or ecological value is identified it therefore eliminates any ecological constraints and removes the need for further surveys to be carried out.

On the 2nd of April 2024 UK Habitat Survey and Biodiversity Net Gain Assessments became mandatory. As a result we recommend, our clients get these surveys completed at the same time, therefore keeping the price as cost effective as possible. These surveys can be completed independently, however if the ecologist has to visit the site again it would be at an additional cost.
