Wild Echo replaces expensive manual wildlife surveys with 24/7 AI acoustic monitoring. One-click compliance reports. Pre-harvest clearance certificates. EPBC Act due diligence, documented.
Talk to Us See How It WorksForestry and mining operations in Australia face binding obligations across multiple regulatory frameworks. The penalties for non-compliance aren't administrative, they're criminal.
Any action with significant impact on EPBC-listed threatened species requires federal approval. Ongoing compliance conditions include monitoring and reporting. Penalties up to $46.2M per contravention for corporations.
FSC-certified operations must systematically identify, monitor, and manage biodiversity values and High Conservation Value species. Annual audit trail required. Evidence must be documented and defensible.
Koalas and listed species are legally protected. Pre-harvest wildlife surveys are a legal requirement before any harvesting commences. Operations must stop and buffer zones maintained when species are detected.
All Australian states now require Mine Closure Plans with baseline and ongoing fauna monitoring. Annual reporting to state regulators. Biodiversity success criteria tied to wildlife indicators.
Solar-powered sensors record ambient sound every 30 seconds. AI analyses every clip and identifies wildlife automatically. One click exports a compliance-ready PDF for auditors and regulators.
