Technical reviews

Turning highly technical jargon into information that aids decision-making

Ecological information can be highly technical.

At Boobook Ecological Consulting, we are passionate about helping others better understand the world around them, and know that increased knowledge and understanding results in better and more informed decision-making.

Our team of expert senior ecologists are often called upon to provide third party technical and peer reviews for our clients who are seeking project approvals from the federal government.

If you are looking for a technical expert to represent you in an approval meeting, look no further than Boobook Ecological Consulting.

Thanks to our decades of experience and in-depth knowledge of the Brigalow Belt and Mulga Lands bioregions, you can rest assured the information we provide will be correct and up-to-date.

Our senior staff have also been invited members of technical expert panels including the Department of Environment and Science’s Back on Track and BAMM bioregional conservation planning programs and threatened species recovery teams (e.g. WWF Brigalow Belt Reptiles).

What our clients say

"Craig did a brilliant environmental audit and pointed out things that we didn’t even know existed. He scientifically mounted an argument by looking at numbers and regions using botanical names to classify each of the plants and animals – it’s that rigour that makes the biodiversity offset application so credible."

"Boobook’s service has been used over a number of years on various projects in South Western Queensland including fauna spotting/catching, EVNT flora surveys and invasive plant surveys. In this time, Boobook’s owners and staff have been personable and highly knowledgeable in their various fields."

‘Boobook are without a doubt the best at what they do. They are leagues above other similar providers. Boobook offers the next level in understanding the goals of their clients and how to achieve best outcomes for clients and the environment.’

‘Boobook have an understanding of our activities and the rules and regulations, and they are extremely helpful and proactive in helping us find solutions. Craig knows where there is going to be a problem and helps us find an alternative solution. They are also extremely accommodating on timeframes, and generally just good to deal with.’

"We’ve worked with Boobook for a long time now, you can be confident with what you are going to get, and you deal with the same people too. We can talk to Craig or Meryl or the senior people, and we get the same level of understanding. We’ve always been very happy with the Boobook service."

"I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Boobook for consulting work – they collaborate really well and they are so good at dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s. They have a really good set of skills across the board."

"If you want locally applied knowledge with a group of people who understand what it means to play an active and meaningful role in a community then Boobook are the ones for you. It’s a small company that has a high level of attention to detail and provides a great customer experience that isn’t lost in the workings or mechanics of a large nationally based company."

‘Craig Eddie is a well-known Ecologist in the Surat Basin and his expertise of this local area is invaluable to our projects to meet essential industry obligations.’

‘Craig and the Boobook team are easy going and great to be around. All with the same common goals and passions, they embraced the project with full commitment and acute attention to detail. No stone was left unturned and QMDC could be assured that the field day attendees had thorough and accurate information.’
