Environmental Impact Assessment

International law now requires E.I.A. to be carried out for large projects within the United Kingdom.

Various scientific disciplines are used to provide an in-depth assessment of the project's impact.

• Ecology: trees, vegetation, fauna.
• Hydrology
• Road engineering
• Services
• Noise

These disciplines are all brought together in one report, to produce a detailed understanding of the project and its impact. From this report, landscape design proposals, and site mitigation proposals can be designed.

E.I.A.s are carried out by liaising with the Statutory bodies, e.g. planning departments and Scottish Natural Heritage,
