Water Vole

Our fully qualified ecologists have considerable experience in supporting clients where the water vole is a factor in development.

Water voles can inhabit many kinds of water bodies, including rivers, ditches, ponds and lakes and are often present in urban and brownfield sites. Where such habitats are involved, our knowledge and expertise help to ensure that your development can proceed with minimum delay, cost-effectively and will comply with legal obligations.

Our services include:

• Surveys to ascertain the presence or absence of water voles
• Workable solutions to the presence of water voles within development areas
• Design and implementation of mitigation strategies
• Full technical support to any statutory licence applications
