Projects need assessments yearly in QLD

Every development project in Australia needs an ecological assessment. There aren't enough ecologists to do them.

Queensland alone processes thousands of development applications requiring ecological clearance each year. Traditional consultancies are backlogged weeks. Projects stall. Costs spiral. And the quality of assessments varies wildly depending on who writes them.
