Ecological surveys in Grenoble.

In Grenoble, at the crossroads of three massifs (Vercors, Chartreuse, Belledonne) and their corridors, the Alpine ecological wealth and the wetlands of the basin, protected under Natura 2000 and ZNIEFF, make ecological survey work an unavoidable prerequisite. Protected mountain and plain species, ecological corridors and sensitive habitats call for rigorous surveys upstream. Our ecologists carry out four-season fauna and flora surveys, the VNEI, the Natura 2000 impact assessment and the CNPN application, with the monitoring of ERC measures, for projects in Grenoble and across the conurbation.

In Grenoble, the wealth of natural habitats (Natura 2000 sites, ZNIEFF, protected species) makes ecological survey work a structuring prerequisite for development. Four-season surveys, VNEI, CNPN application and the mitigation hierarchy secure environmental authorisation and planning permission.

FAQ

FAQ, ecological surveys in Grenoble

The area around Grenoble concentrates high biodiversity stakes (Natura 2000 sites, ZNIEFF, protected species and habitats). As soon as a project is likely to affect natural habitats, an ecological survey conditions the environmental authorisation, the impact assessment and the planning permission: fauna and flora surveys over a full biological cycle, impact assessment and the Avoid-Reduce-Offset mitigation hierarchy.
Yes: fauna and flora surveys across the four seasons, ecological chapter of the impact assessment (VNEI), Natura 2000 impact assessment, and protected-species derogation application (CNPN) with the definition and monitoring of ERC measures. Our ecologists work in Grenoble and its area to secure the project's regulatory timetable.
