Protected Species Survey Prior to Demolition, Newport

Demolition supervision by licensed bat ecologists

Glan Llyn Steelworks, Newport

As part of the clearance of the former Glan Llyn Steelworks site, a number of the huge electricity sub-stations were identified as containing bat roosts.

The buildings were demolished under a European Protected Species derogation licence, which included the construction of a dedicated bat house and provision of bat boxes around a nearby lake. The demolition was fully supervised by licensed bat ecologists.
