Our Ecological Consultant Laura has successfully achieved her Level 1 Great Crested Newt (GCN) Class Survey Licence, which is a fantastic achievement.
Laura has been working towards her licence for the last couple of years, with the final part attending a GCN licence course earlier this year. Congratulations Laura in getting your GCN Licence.
This now allows Laura to survey GCN using various techniques via:
- hand;
- nets;
- torches; and
- aquatic funnel traps (including bottle traps)
Laura has gained relevant and valuable experience in undertaking GCN surveys, as well as gaining a comprehensive understanding of their ecology. Alongside this, having a reference from a licenced individual who is confident in her abilities to supporting her application.
For our clients who work with our Ecology Team it provides you with a fourth consultant who have a great created newt licence.
If you have a project where Great Crested Newts are involved please contact the team who will be happy to assist, please do get in touch.
