We've carried out fish and fisheries assessments
throughout the world including Britain's first Fisheries Stategic
Environmental Assessment (SEA)
Mott MacDonald provides our clients with the best possible
advice on various fish ecology and fisheries assessment
services.
Fish ecology and fisheries studies are particularly relevant to our
work on gaining abstraction or discharge licences, compensation to
fishermen for loss of income due to structural works, assessments
of impacts on habitats and species, migration studies, fish ecology
enhancement schemes and water quality amongst other studies.
Our engineers have been involved with the design and operation of
fish passes on many projects around the world. And in the UK, it is
becoming increasingly important to maintain the ecological
integrity of our rivers to ensure that fish, and other communities
thrive.
Our experience on fish ecology and fisheries extends to coastal,
marine and freshwater ecosystems and we are therefore able to
assist our clients in a wide range of projects.
