HalpinRobbins undertakes professional badger surveys throughout Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire and across the South West, supporting planning applications, ecological assessments and conservation requirements.
A badger survey identifies evidence of badger activity and records the location and status of setts. This assessment provides the baseline information needed to understand potential constraints and inform planning decisions.
Badger sett surveys classify setts by type and level of use. Accurate mapping and assessment help determine appropriate buffers, mitigation measures, and potential licensing requirements.
Where impacts cannot be avoided, badger mitigation planning sets out measures to protect badgers and their setts. This includes timing controls, exclusion measures, and habitat management where appropriate.
Certain works require a badger licence. We provide clear advice on licensing routes, survey evidence requirements, and mitigation measures needed to support an application.
Badger survey reports are prepared for planning submission and consultation. Clear reporting supports planning authority review and helps ensure ecological considerations are addressed proportionately.
