Ecological surveys in Nîmes.

In Nîmes, the proximity of the Camargue, the Costières and the garrigues, rich in Natura 2000 sites, ZNIEFF and protected species, makes ecological survey work an unavoidable prerequisite for development. Wetlands, steppe habitats and corridors call for rigorous surveys upstream to secure the impact assessment, environmental authorisation and planning permission. Our ecologists carry out fauna and flora surveys across the four seasons, the ecological chapter of the impact assessment, the Natura 2000 impact assessment and the CNPN application, managing the Avoid-Reduce-Offset mitigation hierarchy, for operations in Nîmes and across the Gard.

In Nîmes, 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.
