The project involved the completion of various services focused on environmental conservation and habitat management. The following services were successfully carried out:

Active Fuel Storage Compound: A fuel storage facility was established to ensure the safe and efficient storage of active fuels. This compound adheres to industry standards and regulations to prevent any environmental hazards.

Habitat Management (Clearing 26 Hectares): A comprehensive habitat management plan was implemented, which involved clearing 26 hectares of land. This process aimed to restore and maintain the ecological balance by removing unwanted vegetation and ensuring a suitable habitat for native species.

Water Vole Fencing: Fencing was installed to protect water vole habitats and prevent their access to certain areas. These measures were taken to safeguard this endangered species and preserve their natural environment.

Habitat Creation: The project included the creation of new habitats to promote biodiversity and enhance the local ecosystem. These habitats were carefully designed and implemented to support a diverse range of species and contribute to overall environmental sustainability.

Newt Fencing: Fencing specifically designed to protect newt populations was installed to prevent their migration into unsuitable areas. This initiative aimed to conserve newt habitats and minimize any potential disruptions to their natural behavior and breeding patterns.

Japanese Knotweed Treatment: Measures were taken to address the issue of Japanese knotweed, an invasive plant species known for its destructive impact on native vegetation. A targeted treatment plan was implemented to control and manage the spread of this invasive species effectively.

Overall, the project successfully addressed multiple aspects of environmental conservation, including habitat management, species protection, and invasive species control. By implementing these services, the project aimed to promote sustainable practices and ensure the long-term preservation of the ecosystem.
