Ground Investigation Techniques – Hand Sampling
Ground investigation techniques vary depending on the objectives of the investigation, the strata, and logistical factors such as access.

The badger is a familiar face in the English countryside, but when it comes to development projects, they can become a cause for concern and the need for a badger survey.
agb Environmental is an environmental consultancy specialising in multi-service, multi-site development projects. We provide comprehensive environmental site assessment and coordinated constraints management.
agb Environmental has the specialist teams to help survey for and mitigate the impacts of any developments to near water vole habitat. Should you have any projects where water voles may be a constraint, or where you may require any further ecology or protected species surveys, please get in touch.
When developing a site, where trees make life difficult, you may be able to take them out to fit your layout, but you have little control over trees beyond your boundaries. What do you need to know when it comes to your neighbours’ trees?
The team at agb Environmental wishes you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Just a reminder the Newmarket and London offices will have limited staffing between Thursday 22nd December 2016 and Tuesday 3rd January 2017.
agb Environmental ecologists have prepared two important calendars you may wish to refer to if you’re planning to develop a site with potential for protected species.
You’re all set to start planning your development, or maybe submit the planning application, when you’re told you need a tree survey. Who do you need to ask, and what is it you need from them?
We have developed an hour long CPD seminar to offer some insight into the process of engaging, managing and understanding ecology surveys.
The contaminated land assessment process enables the developer to demonstrate that the site is safe and suitable for the proposed use. This is achieved through the planning system, at application stage, and through relevant planning conditions.
If you’re planning works to buildings or underground structures, you are likely to need an ecologist to assess the potential for hibernating bats.
As the mild autumn temperatures that we’ve been enjoying are starting to fade and the colder weather sets in, birds will be migrating to their winter grounds from northern latitudes.
