The Frodsham Solar Development Consent Order (DCO) application has now been accepted by the Planning Inspectorate (PINS) for examination. Avian ecology has provided ecological services in relation to this DCO application since 2022. This input has included a range or ornithological and ecological surveys, reflecting the sensitive location of the proposals close to a number of internationally designated sites. Avian have gone on to develop detailed mitigation proposals for the solar scheme, including significant mitigation for wintering birds. Examination of the DCO application will take up to 6 months, and Avian Ecology will be providing support and guidance to our client throughout the examination phase.
