Full Feasibility Studies
A full feasibility study will take a number of days, depending on the scale of the proposed scheme. It would include fuller financial projections, contact with the local planning authority and Environment Agency, and other interested bodies e.g. Nature England. The scope of environmental impact assessments would be agreed at this stage. A scheme would be outlined and costed preliminarily.
