About Western Ecology Limited

We are Western Ecology Limited, a South West based ecological consultancy / environmental consultant covering Devon, Cornwall and Somerset. Our experienced ecologists offer clear-thinking and pragmatic advice on your ecological problems to smooth your way to a successful planning application.

If you are looking to build a house, develop a site or need a bat survey to support a planning application in Devon, Cornwall or Somerset, then Western Ecology’s professional ecologists can help you. We work to British Standard BS42020:2013 so you can be sure to get the highest quality service.

Our ecologists provide the full range of ecological surveys (environmental surveys and reports) you are likely to need during your planning application. This includes the initial survey of a site that has many names such as: Preliminary ecological appraisals, extended / phase 1 habitat surveys, wildlife surveys, ecological assessments and biodiversity surveys.

If you are only developing a building you are likely to be asked for: Preliminary visual assessment for bats and breeding birds, bat and barn owl surveys, bat surveys or the planning authority may just call it a wildlife survey or an ecology survey.

Following this initial survey, certain phase 2 surveys in relation to protected species may be recommended such as: Bat, reptile, badger, dormouse, otter, water vole, great crested newt, breeding bird, plant and invertebrate surveys.
Finally, when you get your planning permission you may have planning conditions asking for: Species specific method statements, landscape and ecology management plans, ecological mitigation and enhancements schemes, biodiversity mitigation plans and European Protected Species licensing.
