I was invited along to a proposed development site in Kent today and asked to comment on some mitigation strategies that are being implemented by consultants.
Since a DEFRA gcn licence has not yet been obtained the consultants were unable to build a traditional plastic barrier fence for reptiles. They have therefore deployed an amazintg piece of technology: 'The ACME Transparent Reptile Fence'. Apparently, the sheer transparency of the fence will lull reptiles into a false sense of security and dissuade them from attempting any mad dash across that incredibly wide area of strimmed grassland . Now remember folks you read it here first.... *sigh* Before you ask, they haven't got a DEFRA mitigation license because they do not yet have planning permission. Think about it. Lee |
