Ecology
Reunion Island has been recognised as one of the world’s 34 biodiversity ‘hotspots’ by the World Conservation Union (IUCN). The territory’s ecological transition is inseparable from the preservation of its biodiversity, which is rich in natural environments and species that are unique in the world. Such preservation requires in-depth knowledge of the environments and the implementation of appropriate and efficient management measures.

Our services include:

  • naturalist inventories of terrestrial environments (fauna, flora and habitats),
  • project impact assessments and proposal of measures with the ‘avoid-reduce-compensate’ approach,
  • preparation of regulatory applications relating to biodiversity or protected natural areas (exemption for protected species, land clearance or protected species, authorisation for the core area of a park, etc.),
  • ecological site supervision (supervision and monitoring),
  • project owner assistance or project management for natural habitat restoration,
  • ecological monitoring.

Our customers:

Amongs its key clients, Envirotech works with major public authorities such as:

  • The Reunion Island Regional Council,
  • The Departmental Council of Reunion Island.
