Previously Pioneered Environmental Service Projects

Biodiversity, approvals, and construction-stage ecology for development, infrastructure, government, and education projects across New South Wales.

Recent work across Sydney and regional NSW

Since March 2024, ESEA has delivered biodiversity development assessment reports (BDARs), flora and fauna assessments, reviews of environmental factors (REFs), vegetation management plans (VMPs), targeted surveys, fauna rescue, and clearing and habitat certification across Greater Sydney and regional NSW.
