Once a qualified ecologist has completed a physical inspection of a development site, they will need to provide mitigation plans that eliminate any issues identified during the assessment. In some cases, they may suggest safely moving birds to bird nest boxes or trees in other areas of the site. Alternatively, in the case of high value bird nests, they may suggest appropriate measures that will protect the natural environment such as altering the development to avoid disturbing the nest, or call for additional survey work to uncover more information.
