Business Case

[RogueDrone]

All,
I have been working on the management of myplace of work about getting bees on site. This has been delayed as it is a weapons range lost of flash bang wallops so finding a suitably safe place has been difficult. I have now come up with one an old gunnery position large circular wall around 5feet high protection.

So now I have a favour to ask has any body written a business case that I could look at for pointers thinking on the lines of envoroment and possible STEM learning.

All assistance with this would be appreciated

Colin

I'd imagine if it's on a weapons range you'd have limited collaboration with organisations for STEM development.

For a none financial case it would be worthwhile checking out your organisations outreach policies around social and environmental initiatives so see where you can show your case aligning to there. I know from my own experience where we've got bees on the roofs of several locations that the case was built on employee engagements (they have their own bee club), environmental responsibility and they do some educational collaboration with some engineering.

I'd also include a risk assessment just to prevent some pest bringing it up later.

bet there's lovely forage for bees there. Live fire = wild life.
As regards try contacting the Rare plant organisations as they have the case histories of the value of MOD wildlife i.e. rare orchids etc...

Things to remember...Look for unique values

First one that comes to mind is
Probably no neonictinoids on a live range. Thus your bees could be a control colony in the vital study on insecticides. There has been great difficulty in finding valid controls cos the rest of the country is full of neonics.

At a guess this range is in or very close to the pembrokeshire national park so co operation with the national park on pollination and pollinators in a relatively undisturbed landscape would be in there as well.

How about a project for bees to discover unexploded ordinance

I am the sites conservation officer. The site has not been fertilized for over 60yrs we have 3 SSSI sites. I organise 4 field trips a year for various forna & flora specialists to carry out thier surveys all good stuff.

OK I'll expand a little if you like though it seems like teaching grandmothers to .. now I know what you do
