Fauna spotter catching for a major rail constructionA multinational property and infrastructure development company engaged Ecosure to provide fauna spotter catcher services for the construction of a 26km stretch of rail duplication in Central Queensland. Ecosure conducted a pre-clear survey of the entire rail corridor to identify animal habitat features that would be impacted by clearing activities. During this phase fauna spotter catchers were provided for each clearing machine and animals impacted by the clearings were safely relocated to suitable habitat. Ecosure developed allrequiredreportingforregulatoryagencies.
