Environment & Ecology

Ecological expertise

This expertise is organised around naturalist inventories. Our inventories aim to study the natural habitats and species present within the area being studied. Ecological issues are then identified, assessed and monitored.

By combining our experts' specialities, our fields of expertise cover groups of flora, fauna, and natural habitats. The study of each group requires the implementation of specific protocols that we master:

• Pedology surveys,
• Day and night passages,
• Visual and audio contacts,
• Meticulous search for traces,
• Analysis of ecological continuity,
• Search for individuals directly in their permanent or temporary habitats,
• Measuring chiropteran activity.

What we do:

• fauna inventories
• flora and natural habitat inventories
• wetland expertise
• expertise in green and blue network
• expertise in wind and solar farms

Environmental regulatory files

Our expertise covers the entire process of analysing the environmental effects of a development project, measuring its environmental acceptability, suggesting measures to limit its impact, and informing decision-makers.

Because we work with the regulations and notified bodies (water police, DREAL, DDT, RTM, ABF, etc.) every day, we are able to manage your development projects by drawing up solid regulatory files, capable of justifying that the environment was properly considered.

What we do:

• impact assessment
• environmental permit file
• authorisation file for a classified site
• Natura 2000 impact assessment
• case-by-case review
• protected species exemption file
• CDNPS files
• water law file
• clearing file
• environmental feasibility study
• environmental assessment of urban planning studies (PLUI, PLU, SCoT...)
