• Provide ecological toolbox talks to site personnel (including ecological receptors) to make them aware of ecological constraints and information
• Highlight mitigation to minimize impacts and make site personnel aware of their responsibility with regards to wildlife and sensitive habitats in the context of legislation and policy
