	The ecological consultant (ecologist) will produce a detailed survey report on completion of the ecological survey. The report will detail the survey findings together with an assessment of how the proposed development could be expected to impact on habitats and species that are present at the site and suggested mitigation designed to reduce those impacts. Any limitations to the survey or findings are also included.		The ecological consultant (ecologist) will produce a detailed survey report on completion of the ecological survey.
