The special species protection assessment (saP) is a clearly structured procedural step in the authorisation process in Germany. 
Our biology team will guide you safely through the authorisation procedure. 

We carry out detailed nature conservation surveys to reliably record the occurrence of specially and strictly protected species (e.g. birds, bats, amphibians, reptiles, insects, plants) in the study area. Based on this data, we prepare legally compliant assessments for you and develop suitable avoidance and mitigation measures. Finally, we draw up a meaningful saPreport for you in accordance with the requirements of the position paper for wind power.
