We are experienced Landscape and Ecological Management Plan (LEMP) consultants with proven experience across a range of industry sectors. We are committed to providing fast and accurate LEMP reports for all councils across the UK mainland. We have helped many developers and contractors get their landscape and ecology planning conditions discharged.
A Landscape and Ecological Management Plan (LEMP) is a document required by UK councils as a planning condition, setting out how the landscaped areas and ecological features of a development will be established, managed and maintained over the long term. It covers planting and habitat creation, protected species measures, biodiversity enhancements such as bat and bird boxes, and a clear maintenance schedule with defined responsibilities — often spanning five to thirty years. Councils may secure similar requirements through an Ecological Management Plan or a Biodiversity Enhancement Plan; whatever the name, the purpose is the same. During the construction phase itself, ecological controls are usually handled within a Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP).
At Liongate, we specialize in preparing Landscape and Ecological Management Plans with a team of expert consultants. They efficiently handle the development of LEMPs and skillfully manage the discharge of landscape and ecology conditions set by councils. Our consultants, experienced in landscape planning and ecological management, ensure that each LEMP meets the council’s requirements and delivers a lasting benefit for the site and its surroundings, facilitating a compliant and successful development.
At Liongate, our Landscape and Ecological Management Plan services are tailored to meet your project’s specific needs, with a clear focus on efficiency and transparency in both pricing and lead times. Here are the key details:
Near Cambridge, our team at Liongate prepared a biodiversity-focused Construction Environmental Management Plan for the Land at Third Drove scheme with Cambridge Power — putting ecological protection at the centre of the construction strategy.
From safeguarding habitats during the works to setting out enhancement measures for the longer term, the plan gave the council confidence that ecology had been properly addressed — the same joined-up approach we bring to every Landscape and Ecological Management Plan.
