Why do you need an ECoW?

The purpose of an Ecological Clerk of Works on site is to advise you on any known or potential ecological constraints that may impact how the works are undertaken. They will be present on-site and will ensure that the project proceeds according to the laws surrounding protected species and habitats.

As ECoWs we can provide:

  • Watching briefs for ongoing works

  • Identification and resolution of ecological constraints that may arise during works

  • Monitoring of habitats and/or protected species that were identified during initial surveys

  • Ensuring the implementation of mitigation licences for European Protected Species is done accordingly

  • Production of daily site reports recording ongoing works
