Critical Habitat Assessments

The Biodiversity Consultancy is a leading provider of lender aligned Critical Habitat Assessments (e.g. PS6, PR6, ESS6), having undertaken Critical Habitat Assessments for projects in sectors such as mining, renewable energy, and built infrastructure. This assessment, helps organisations identify and verify Critical Habitat-qualifying biodiversity in proximity to their site based project, to pinpoint information gaps, and to evaluate the need for and scope additional field studies.

 

The experience and understanding gained over the years of conducting these assessments has enabled us to maximise efficiencies by ensuring a comprehensive assessment of biodiversity risks for each proejct. Our process then allows us to support projects to identify strategic, pragmatic and cost-effective approaches to development aligned with lending standards and to understand the next steps required for activities in Critical Habitat. This may involve the need for a Residual Impact Assessment, Biodiversity Action Plans, offset feasibility study and offset design and implementation planning, all of which we can write and provide for the cleint.
