About DWK
DWK Freshwater Consulting is an independent environmental consultancy established by Dr. David Kelly (MCIEEM, MIFM) in 2014.
The business is based in Brookeborough, Co. Fermanagh. We work throughout Ireland / Northern Ireland and specialise in providing land management advice for the conservation of lakes, rivers, and associated habitats; water quality monitoring and assessment; freshwater ecology and fisheries surveys; the preparation of environmental impact statements in support of planning applications. We also farm the Ardunshin herd of pedigree Aberdeen Angus cattle and a flock of sheep along the Colebrooke River and are very familiar with the challenges of farming in environmentally sensitive habitats.
