Summary

Machine-generated summary

The Province of Groningen is tendering ecological research services for the protection of threatened bat species in the Netherlands. The European procurement covers two lots. Lot 1 is a framework agreement with one contracting party for specialist telemetry research into particular bat species, including the parti-coloured bat, pond bat, serotine, grey long-eared bat, Brandt's bat and whiskered bat. Lot 2 is a framework agreement with several contracting parties to carry out regular ecological research for the species management plans of participating Groningen municipalities. The research aims to improve knowledge of presence, distribution, roosts and habitats to support species protection and permit decisions.

Description

Deze Europese aanbesteding betreft het telemetrisch onderzoek naar diverse vleermuissoorten en voor de soortmanagementplannen (hierna SMP) van Groninger gemeenten het ecologisch nul-onderzoek, de herhaalonderzoeken en de monitoringsonderzoeken. De aanbesteding is ingedeeld in twee percelen. Het eerste perceel heeft als doel een raamovereenkomst te sluiten tussen één contractpartij en de provincie Groningen voor het uitvoeren van specialistisch, telemetrisch, onderzoek naar bijzondere soorten vleermuizen die voorkomen in de provincie Groningen. Het tweede perceel heeft als doel een raamovereenkomst te sluiten tussen meerdere contractpartijen en de aan deze aanbesteding deelnemende Groninger gemeenten voor het uitvoeren van het reguliere ecologische onderzoek SMP. De provincie Groningen faciliteert en organiseert dit doormiddel van deze aanbesteding. De opdracht omvat het uitvoeren van ecologisch onderzoek naar kwetsbare en moeilijke detecteerbare gebouwbewonende beschermde vleermuissoorten binnen de provincie Groningen. Dit betreft de doelsoorten: tweekleurige vleermuis, meervleermuis, laatvlieger, gewone grootoorvleermuis, Brandts vleermuis en baardvleermuis. Het onderzoek heeft als doel het verkrijgen van beter inzicht in de aanwezigheid, verspreiding, verblijfplaatsen, functionele netwerken en het leefgebied van deze soorten ten behoeve van soortenbescherming, gemeentelijke soortmanagementplannen en vergunningverlening. Het onderzoek wordt uitgevoerd binnen de provincie Groningen. Prioritaire onderzoeksgebieden kunnen gedurende de looptijd van de opdracht nader worden bepaald op basis van verkregen onderzoeksgegevens, gemeentelijk SMP-onderzoek en resultaten van voorafgaande onderzoeksfases. De beschikbare middelen dienen te worden ingezet op locaties, populaties en onderzoeksvragen waar de grootste kenniswinst wordt verwacht.; De provincie Groningen heeft een model-Soortenmanagementplan (SMP) laten opstellen en ter beschikking gesteld aan de gemeenten. Groninger gemeenten kunnen dit model-SMP gebruiken als basis voor het aanvragen van een gebiedsgerichte vergunning voor flora- en fauna-activiteiten. Om gebruik te kunnen maken van deze vergunning dienen de gemeenten ecologische nul-onderzoeken uit te voeren conform de eisen en onderzoeksprotocollen uit het model-SMP. Deze onderzoeken worden uitgevoerd binnen vooraf vastgestelde onderzoeksgebieden, die door de uiteindelijke contractpartijen worden afgebakend op basis van de vereiste onderzoeksinspanning zoals opgenomen in het model-SMP. De onderhavige opdracht betreft het uitvoeren van deze ecologische nul-onderzoeken, de daaropvolgende herhaalonderzoeken en de benodigde monitoringswerkzaamheden. De onderzoeken dienen gedurende de looptijd van de raamovereenkomst te worden uitgevoerd ten behoeve van de vergunningverlening en het monitoren van beschermde diersoorten binnen de deelnemende gemeenten.
