Environmental Monitoring & Auditing
Environmental Monitoring, Observation And Auditing
Environmental monitoring during the construction or implementation phase of a project is a common legal requirement. For ecologically sensitive areas, monitoring according to an environmental management plan (EMP) may be necessary throughout the project cycle, especially if the effects of a development on the surrounding environment are significant or uncertain.

natural changes
In order to do this effectively it is necessary to understand the natural daily, seasonal and yearly changes in background levels of all measured parameters in order to explain the cause of any changes and attribute them either to natural fluctuations or to disturbance from the development. To facilitate this, we are able to access long-term databases of limnology (freshwater ecology) and oceanographic (water temperature, currents, etc.) and meteorological data (wind, temperature, precipitation etc.) from the region.
environmental monitoring
Our services for environmental monitoring include data collection, analysis and interpretation, and often cover a diversity of assets including air quality, noise, groundwater quality, fresh and seawater quality, biological diversity and habitat health. These are compared with national and international standards or put into a national or regional context by comparing them with data collected from elsewhere in the region.
environmental monitoring
The strength of environmental monitoring is the early detection of environmental damage, which can then be mitigated by effective management of its cause before significant environmental damage is caused. We have experience with long-term monitoring of project and as a result we have an extensive library of information as well as a strong working relationship with the relevant industries and government institutions.
observing skills
Complementing our monitoring and observing skills is the experience that we have gained in conducting environmental audits to ensure compliance with permit conditions and national legislation.
