Mining and Energy
Wychwood is working with responsible mining companies that seek a positive outcome for biodiversity. We help mining companies to minimise their impacts and achieve biodiversity gains on their land. We provide advice on biodiversity management at each phase of the project cycle, from baseline studies to closure.
Wychwood specialises in strategic biodiversity issues including:
designing and reviewing baseline studies for biodiversity and ecosystem services;
applying good practice biodiversity standards such as IFC’s Performance Standards;
mitigating impacts to biodiversity through careful design and innovative thinking; and
developing credible approaches to biodiversity net gain.
Wychwood provides practical support for biodiversity management including:
developing species and habitat management plans;
creating bespoke plans for monitoring species and habitats; and
designing and overseeing habitat creation and restoration.
