JBA ecologists have experience in assessing the potential impacts of plans, projects and activities on Natura 2000 sites and annexed species and habitats.  Our advice and expertise enable developers and competent authorities to negotiate the Appropriate Assessment process in Ireland and deliver sustainable and environmentally sensitive plans and projects.  We provide professional training to competent authorities including the OPW, local authorities and government departments on Appropriate Assessment including EU Case Law.  This knowledge is presented in series of case studies and group discussions by our experienced facilitator.
