Biodiversity Assessment Method

Evelyn is an accredited assessor with experience in preparation of Biodiversity Development Assessment Reports (BDAR) and Biodiversity Stewardship Site Assessment Reports (BSSAR). For certain developments, use of the BAM is mandatory and must be undertaken by an accredited assessor. Evolve Ecology is familiar with the process and has obtained approval for BDARs from both local and state governments.

Where required, assessment under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 and consideration of the Koala SEPP are also undertaken.

For potential Biodiversity Stewardship Sites, Evolve Ecology can provide a feasibility assessment to provide more certainty as to the site’s eligibility and its potential to generate biodiversity credits, prior to committing to a complete BSSAR.

Flora and Fauna Assessment

For projects that do not require a BDAR, Evolve Ecology can prepare a Flora and Fauna Assessment to assess the impacts to biodiversity values and provide justification as to why a BDAR is not triggered.

Where required, five part tests, assessment under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 and consideration of the Koala SEPP would also be undertaken.

Part 5 Assessments

Evolve Ecology prepares Part 5 assessments for projects ranging from low level impacts through to those requiring a complete Review of Environmental Factors with assessments of significance (five-part tests).

Biodiversity Constraints Analysis

Biodiversity Constraints Analysis identify the biodiversity values at a site and determine how these values affect its development potential. Evolve Ecology can advise as to the best approach, whether this be development, conservation, or a combination of both.
