Unfortunately it is a fact of life that accidents happen. When this occurs it is crucial that a business can quickly assess the consequences for the environment and identify the corrective action to minimise future problems. We can help you to identify this impact and work with regulators to allay any fears they may have. Where appropriate, root cause analyses can then be undertaken to avoid any reoccurrences of the problem.
Environmental impact assessments of planned releases.
All businesses have environmental emissions for which there is an increasing amount of regulation. As well as a long track record in ecological monitoring, Ecospan staff have been involved with DTA since its inception. We worked with the regulators to ensure industry views were incorporated in the approach taken. This puts us in the unique position of being able to advise on how to meet the regulatory requirements with the minimum cost to your business.
Environmental risk assessment.
For many businesses that wish to operate responsibly to an environmental management system (eg ISO14001), it is necessary to identify the environmental risks associated with your business activities. Ecospan has the expertise to identify and prioritise these risks. We can then work with you to ensure that risks are removed, or managed in a way which is beneficial to you and acceptable to the regulators.
