Environmental Services
Environmental Services are an important part of the planning process and together with community engagement, often hold the key to the achievement of truly sustainable development that allows development aspirations to be achieved while being sensitive to wider needs and issues.
We have extensive experience in EIA, SEA, Sustainability Appraisal and environmental appraisals in order to advise both public and private clients on how they can meet the requirements of relevant environmental and planning legislation.
Where we believe a partnership with a specialist or technical company is required to undertake detailed study or appraisal work, we will work with a team partner or recommend an appropriate practice. In doing so, we avoid unnecessary duplication of professional fees and maintain a positive and value added approach to working with our Clients. A specialist team tailored to each project's specific needs provides the best practical business option for our Clients. This flexibility allows us to minimise costs and at the same time add value through specialist advice, providing timely and informed advice.
Through our experience of undertaking these exercises and proactive approach in identifying issues and strategies, we have been able to avoid unnecessary objections, delays and adverse publicity during the planning application process.
