Will Bat Surveys Delay My Proposed Works?
#4 How Much Will Bat Surveys Delay My Project?
Bat activity surveys are seasonal, and regardless of the time of year the best way to minimise disruption is to get in touch with us early on in your project. We will always start surveys as soon as possible, and if you have a specific deadline (e.g. for a planning hearing), let us know and we will do everything we can to assist.
If you require more than 1 activity survey, they will need to be at least 3 weeks apart (although more time between them yields better results), and, depending on those findings, we may require time for licence applications to go through.
Full and proper surveys don’t have to mean delays, but failure to commission them in time can lead to unexpected delays and costs.
