Ecological surveys
Perpignan, Occitania

In Perpignan, the ecological stakes are concentrated on a string of remarkable Mediterranean habitats: the Canet-Saint-Nazaire lagoon and the coastal lagoons, the Albères massif, and the dry open habitats of the Roussillon plain. The development of ground-mounted photovoltaics adds a specific land pressure, whose review hinges almost entirely on the quality of the Avoid-Reduce-Offset mitigation hierarchy. Our ecologists carry out four-season surveys aligned with the Mediterranean calendar, the ecological chapter of the impact assessment, the Natura 2000 impact assessment and the protected-species derogation application.

In Perpignan, 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.
