ACT Environmental are very experienced at helping clients achieve their business venture goals from overseeing the entire planning process from a scheme’s inception including site identification, environmental impact assessment, planning permission application, discharge of conditions to straightforward opinion and advice. Today’s media network is rarely a friend outside of the industrial sector and new projects are often a target for scrutiny; so proceed with caution.
The success of planning applications and land developments rely on the quality of their assessment of the environmental impacts and meticulous attention to their interactive consequences and influence on design and operation.
Determination of what assessment aspects may or may not be required for a particular site and development can have significant cost implications. Effective management, document review and editing can prevent substantial delays, financial losses and a repeat of the environmental assessment exercise.
Existing and potential sites have unique traits and applicable development policies, which require specific planning applications and variations as well as the technical and environmental impact considerations. A successful planning application is commensurate with a detailed site and development evaluation, a structured predetermined approach and efficient management of all interfaces including economic and operational deliverability. All of which must be presented in a supporting Design and Access Statement, an effective non-contradictory Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) or Environmental Statement (ES).
Works for an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and those for an Environmental Statement (ES) are not necessarily the same; the latter has explicit legal procedures and obligations.
