Natural Heritage Environmental

Environmental impact studies, ecological surveys, and regulatory compliance.

Environmental

What we do

For projects on or near sensitive natural features, where approvals depend on understanding ecological impact. We help developers and municipalities meet environmental regulations and protect biodiversity while achieving successful approvals across the GTA and Ontario.

Tree Inventory Report

Comprehensive tree inventory reports that identify, catalogue, and evaluate trees on a site β€” including species, size, condition, and preservation value β€” to support development planning and regulatory approvals.

Natural Heritage Evaluation

Evaluations that identify, assess, and document environmental features, ecological functions, and site constraints. Our work supports land use planning and development applications while protecting sensitive natural systems and biodiversity.

Tree Planting Plan

Detailed tree planting plans specifying species selection, planting locations, and design strategies tailored to site conditions β€” developed to meet municipal requirements, enhance urban canopy coverage, and promote long-term ecological health.

Questions & answers

Natural Heritage Environmental β€” FAQs

What is a natural heritage evaluation?

A natural heritage evaluation assesses natural features such as woodlands, wetlands, wildlife habitat, and species at risk on or near a site, to meet provincial and municipal environmental policy before development.

Does King EPCM conduct tree and ecological surveys?

Yes. We provide tree inventories and preservation plans, ecological surveys, and environmental impact studies.

When is an environmental impact study required?

An environmental impact study is commonly required when development is near or within a natural heritage feature or its buffer. Municipalities and conservation authorities often require one as part of approvals.
