Environmental Impact Assessment

Environmental Impact Assessment is a formal process for identifying the likely impacts of activities of projects on the environment, and on human health and welfare.

EIA is aimed at understanding the existing / prevailing scenario without project activities and predicting the impacts associated with the project activities on physical environment, human environment and their welfare, proposing mitigative and management measures for preventing the associated negative impacts, measures for improving the overall environment inspection and monitoring methods. HSEIA also encompasses promoting Environmental awareness and necessary pollution preventive and abatement techniques among the project implementing authorities.

Our approach is to focus the HSEIA process upon the key issues and take a proportionate approach to the assessment to minimize project risk and maximize opportunities for success.  Working as an integrated part of your team we:

  • Create a project strategy, which identifies the range of issues critical to project risk, value and ultimately success.
  • Define a suitable project scope, proportionate to the nature and scale of the development, by initiating an early and effective consultation process.
  • Prepare a robust Environmental Statement or appraisal that addresses regulatory requirements and guidance

Design-in solutions, embedding sustainable mitigation measures in the design, to add value and

Environmental Survey and Baseline Studies

A baseline assessment examines the area's original environmental condition before the project's development activity gets underway. This study acts as a baseline against which the project's implementation-related modifications are assessed.

Environmental Performance Reporting

Environmental Audit

Environmental audits are tools that evaluate the effectiveness of existing environmental management systems, indicating whether the organization is operating in an environmentally responsible manner and thereby avoid costly or nuisance surprises. In addition, environmental audits identify weaknesses and risk areas in terms of potential environmental disasters and provide a forum for the exchange of technical knowledge and the identification of areas where costs can be saved.

Environmental auditing is applicable to all business sectors. It is of particular value to businesses involved in industrial activities and having to meet certain requirements in terms of environmental legislation. It is also of great value to companies exporting products to overseas markets that are sensitive to the environmental performance of their suppliers.

Our Environmental Audit / Environmental Assessment approach embraces a multi-tiered approach dependent upon the depth and scale of assessment required from the environmental considerations within a Social Audit to a Bespoke environmental audit performed by one of our experienced Environmental Auditors.

 

Environmental Monitoring

Environmental monitoring is the systematic sampling of air, water, soil, and biota in order to observe and study the environment, as well as to derive knowledge from this process. Environmental monitoring is used in the preparation of environmental impact assessments, as well as in many circumstances in which human activities carry a risk of harmful effects on the natural environment. All monitoring strategies and programs have reasons and justifications, which are often designed to establish the current status of an environment or to establish trends in environmental parameters.

Types of Environmental Monitoring and Assessment:

  • Indoor or ambient air quality Monitoring
  • Water Quality Monitoring
  • Soil Monitoring
  • Noise Level Monitoring
  • Performance Test Monitoring
  • Stack emissions monitoring

 

Environmental Management Planning (EMP)

Waste Management

Waste management is all the activities and actions required to manage waste from its inception to its final disposal. This includes amongst other things, collection, transport, treatment, and disposal of waste together with monitoring and regulation. It also encompasses the legal and regulatory framework that relates to waste management encompassing guidance on recycling etc.

The term usually relates to all kinds of waste, whether generated during the extraction of raw materials, the processing of raw materials into intermediate and final products, the consumption of final products, or other human activities, including municipal (residential, institutional, commercial), agricultural, and special (health care, household hazardous wastes, sewage sludge). Waste management is intended to reduce adverse effects of waste on health, the environment, or aesthetics.

Wherever people live, waste builds up - whether it's packaging in households, loose chippings on roads, hazardous waste in the healthcare sector, or demolition waste. And this wide variety of materials has an equally broad range of requirements when it comes to collecting, cleaning, and recycling them. That's why an integrated waste management concept is essential for an efficient society.

The recycling experts at the ADP consultant reliably support in the safe disposal of all types of waste for the private sector, trade and industry and various other specialized sectors. ADP consultant offers a diverse portfolio of services to support their customers in all issues relating to efficient waste disposal. And our experts can also make sure all customers' legal obligations are met, comprehensively and sustainably.

 

Environmental Management Planning (EMP)

Environmental management system (EMS) refers to the management of an organization's environmental programs in a comprehensive, systematic, planned and documented manner. It includes the organizational structure, planning and resources for developing, implementing and maintaining policy for environmental protection. ADP approaches EMP in the following ways:

  • Conducting Environmental Effects Monitoring programs in line with regulations
  • Performing trace contaminant monitoring, baseline inventories, and other environmental activities
  • Consulting with stakeholders and Aboriginal peoples to address their concerns about project development
  • Designing and implementing comprehensive environmental management plans that set out protocols for working with the environment
  • Applying geographic information systems and remote sensing to complement on-the-ground data collection
  • Preparing permit applications and liaising with regulatory agencies that oversee the environment
Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP)

A Construction Environmental Management Plan describes how a project will minimize, avoid, or mitigate its effects on the environment and its immediate surroundings. CEMPs frequently refer to and explain the implementation of measures in accordance with environmental commitments outlined in; an Environmental Policy, an Environmental Plan or Environmental Policy, or other legislative requirements. These plans are regularly reviewed and updated throughout the project life cycle.

Environmental Due Diligence and Site Assessments (I and II)

Environmental Due Diligence

In a world of ever-increasing environmental regulation, the impact of environmental issues has fast become a proactively managed boardroom issue. Today, Environmental Due Diligence (EDD) is an increasingly important part of the mergers and acquisition process.  While there is a clear downside in neglecting to consider environmental risks, there is also the possibility that, on occasion, environmental liabilities may have been overstated by previously conducted studies. This may result in valuable investment opportunities being missed. A careful examination of the assumptions underlying existing environmental liability estimates can therefore yield beneficial results.

ADP has a multi-disciplinary, highly qualified team to ease project management, saving crucial time and resources.  ADP has a unique but pragmatic approach to the presentation of Environmental Due Diligence assessments, to conform to client requirements and budget considerations. To obtain information for quick decision-making, a basic assessment of the present circumstances and a rough estimate of potential risks will be prepared. The detailed environmental due diligence includes surveys, preparation of expert opinions and suggestions of corrective measures.

Phase I Site Assessment

Environmental site assessment (Phase I Site Assessment) is a report prepared for a real estate holding that identifies potential or existing environmental contamination liabilities. The analysis, often called an ESA, typically addresses both the underlying land as well as physical improvements to the property.

The primary intent of our Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment or ESA is to identify Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) associated with each property, as well as Business Environmental Risks (BERs) as defined within ASTM.  This site visit includes an inspection for issues identified as within the scope of ASTM 1527 including:

  • Hazardous Materials Storage & Handling
  • Waste Generation, Storage, Disposal & Emissions
  • Underground Storage Tanks
  • Aboveground Storage Tanks
  • Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs)
  • Stained Soil
  • Drums or Unidentified Containers
  • Drains or Sumps
  • Pits, Ponds, or Lagoons
  • Wells
  • Septic Systems
Phase II Site Assessment

Phase II Environmental Site Assessment is an "intrusive" investigation, which collects original samples of soil, groundwater or building materials to analyze for quantitative values of various contaminants. This investigation is normally undertaken when a Phase I ESA determines a likelihood of site contamination.

ADP’s Phase II ESAs are typically conducted in accordance with the ASTM E1903 Standard, the scope of which typically includes a review of previous reports for the subject site and surrounding areas to identify actual or potential sources of environmental contamination; underground utility clearances and borehole layout of the subject site; the mobilizing, drilling, and logging of boreholes; the installation of groundwater monitoring wells (where required); the screening of soil sample headspace; carrying-out chemical analyses on representative soil and groundwater samples at an accredited environmental laboratory; and the preparation of an ESA report of pertinent findings, conclusions, and our recommendations(if any).

Contamination Assessment and Remediation (Soil and Groundwater)

Contamination Assessment and Remediation of soil and groundwater is a crucial aspect of environmental consultancy, and ADP is experienced in providing these services to clients, ensuring that clients receive high-quality services that minimize the impact of contamination on the environment and meet regulatory requirements. The process involves the following steps:

  • Identification of potential sources of contamination: Our experts assess the site and surrounding area to identify any sources of contamination that may affect the soil or groundwater.
  • Assessment of contamination levels: Using appropriate techniques and equipment, the extent and levels of contamination are determined, and the potential risks to human health and the environment are evaluated.
  • Development of a remediation plan: Based on the assessment, a remediation plan is developed to address the contamination and minimize or eliminate any risks.
  • Implementation of remediation measures: Our team implements the remediation measures, which may include physical removal, chemical treatment, or biological degradation of the contaminants.
  • Monitoring of remediation effectiveness: Ongoing monitoring is conducted to assess the effectiveness of the remediation measures and ensure that the site meets relevant regulatory standards for soil and groundwater quality.
Permitting and Advisory

Permitting and Advisory

Desktop Studies

Desktop studies are a time-efficient and non-intrusive method of environmental assessment. In order to evaluate the potential environmental effects of a planned development or project, desktop studies entail analysing already-existing data and literature, such as maps, aerial photos, and reports. This type of research can provide a thorough understanding of the potential environmental implications without requiring physical access to the location, making it a more affordable alternative to on-site field studies.

Project Feasibility Studies

A Project Feasibility Study essentially assesses the practicality of a project or system. The purpose of this study is to objectively identify the strengths and weaknesses of the proposed or ongoing project in addition to determining its impact on the natural environment, the required resources, and finally the project’s potential for success. The two factors that assess the feasibility of the project are; the required cost and the value to be attained. A well-designed feasibility study is conducted with an unbiased, holistic and objective approach to provide an analysis based on which decisions can be made.

Permit Feasibility Studies

A Permit Feasibility Study is an assessment of the permitting procedure in the country and risk assessment of all the factors that can have an impact on the procedure. The study includes a list of authorities that need to be contacted for approvals/permits/no objection certificates and details about the application process. The application process details include the required documents, the time frame for the approval to be issued under normal circumstances, any delays expected due to exceptional circumstances, etc. The exceptional circumstances may include but are not limited to; political stability, administrative restructuring, natural disasters, pandemic, etc.

Permit Acquisition

ADP offers permit acquisition services based on the requirements of System Suppliers and Purchasers.  ADP’s team of in-country consultants across the Middle East and North Africa region has widespread experience and knowledge of the permitting regime. The team ensures that all the permits are obtained in an efficient manner without compromising the project timelines. ADP has experience with obtaining different kinds of permits including; Proprietary Permits also known as Permits In Principle (PIPs), Regulatory Permits, Terrestrial, Marine, and Seabed User Crossing Agreements, etc.

Regulatory Compliance

Regulatory Compliance involves adhering to the standards, guidelines and laws that govern the project operations. The scope of environmental regulations has grown significantly in recent years. These rules ensure the protection and preservation of the natural environment. In order to abide by these environmental laws and regulations, companies hire consultants for guidance in performing their due diligence. In addition to the general environmental laws and regulations, the permits issued for specific projects can also come with environmental compliance conditions. Therefore, ADP’s services are not limited to permit acquisition, we offer services to ensure that the permit conditions are respected and complied with upon completion of the project.

Project Management

Project Management is the process of leading a teams’ work to achieve all the project objectives while respecting the constraints and agreed parameters of the project. This is accomplished by the efficient use of relevant knowledge, experience, skills and methodologies. Project Management differs from just Management as it has a final deliverable that is linked to a finite timescale and budget whereas just Management on its own is an ongoing process.

There are five stages of Project Management;

  • Initiation

    This stage is the formal commencement of the project. It involves issuing the Project Mandate and authorization of the project budget. This stage often involves a Project Feasibility Study which justifies the need of the project and evaluates the projects’ potential for success.

  • Planning

    This stage involves setting goals for the project; the project scope, plan of work, and schedule are drafted in order to identify various parameters (time, cost, resources, milestones, roles, responsibilities, performance measures, etc.). Additionally, a Communication plan and a Risk Management Plan for unforeseen issues are also designed.

  • Implementation

    This stage involves putting all the plans to action, beginning with a Project Kick-Off meeting. The planned tasks and activities are carried out to produce the project deliverables by using a range of tools and processes relevant to the project. Careful monitoring at this stage as the tasks proceed can ensure keeping the project progress on track and not have it deviate from the plan of work.

  • Monitoring and Control

    This stage often overlaps with the Implementation stage as they often occur at the same time. Monitoring and Control involves measuring the progression of the project and performance of the team (individual and cumulative) with the help of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).

  • Closure

    This is the last stage where the work is completed and the project is ready to be concluded. Closure does not necessarily mean that the project was a success; it just defines the final or end point of the project. A project closure may involve but is not limited to; handing over the deliverables, completion of all activities of the project, cancelation of contracts, archiving relevant project documents, releasing staff and/or resources, etc.

Plume Dispersion Modeling

Plume Dispersion Modeling is the process of predicting the behavior and distribution of contaminant plumes in the soil or groundwater through the use of mathematical models. This process involves the following steps:

  • Gathering and analysis of data: Our experts gather and analyze data on the location, characteristics, and behavior of a contaminant plume in the soil or groundwater.
  • Development of a plume dispersion model: Based on the data, a mathematical model of the dispersion of the contaminant plume is developed to predict its future behavior and distribution.
  • Validation of the model: The model is validated through comparison with field measurements and other data to ensure its accuracy and reliability.
  • Use of the model for risk assessment and management: The model is used to assess the potential risks posed by the contaminant plume and to evaluate potential remediation strategies.

Air Dispersion Modeling

Atmospheric dispersion modeling is the mathematical simulation of how air pollutants disperse in the ambient atmosphere. Atmospheric emissions can have a direct impact on local receptors; therefore, highlighting potential complications at an early stage is crucial. Modelling software allows variables, such as local topography, meteorological conditions, and site-specific details such as building effects to be inputted allowing accurate and detailed results.

ADP provides dispersion modeling using the latest version of AERMOD software.  The typical projects we provide air quality assessments and dispersion modelling for include but are not limited to:

  • Residential developments;
  • Industrial estates;
  • Oil and Gas industries
  • Mining

Environmental Modeling

Models help us better understand how natural systems function and how they respond to a variety of environmental factors, including the temporal and dosage effects of exposure to dangerous compounds. In order to understand the intricacy of environmental issues and subsequently design the regulations and policies required to deal with them, scientists have to practice a holistic approach. A new paradigm known as Integrated Environmental Modeling (IEM) enables this holistic approach by using cross-disciplinary research and technological capabilities for the characterization of problems based on:

  • Geographic scale
  • The interrelation and dynamics of physical and chemical stressors as well as their impact on individuals and the environment
  • The diversity of stakeholders at the municipal, state, and federal levels

The fundamentals to make socially, economically, and politically sustainable decisions.

Flood Assessment Modeling

Flood Assessment Modeling is designed to help communities and organizations understand the potential impacts of floods and develop effective risk management strategies. The process involves using advanced computer models to simulate and analyze potential flood events and identify areas at high risk.

Our goal is to provide a thorough understanding of the coastal environment to promote sustainability and protect the coastal ecosystem.
Sustainability

Sustainability

Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG)

Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) represents an organization's corporate financial interests, which are primarily concerned with ethical and sustainable implications. ESG is a tool used by capital markets to assess businesses and forecast their financial success. Although they are viewed as non-financial performance measures, corporate governance, ethics, and sustainability play an important role in ensuring accountability and mechanisms to control a corporation's impact, such as its carbon footprint.

The negative externalities that a corporation has on the environment, society, and corporate governance are reflected in ESG data. Investors and the company itself can both utilize ESG data as measures for strategic and management objectives to determine the significant risk the organization is incurring.

GRI Report

GRI Report is a sustainability reporting standard which are used by companies to identify, collect, and report data in a clear and comparable manner. It is provided as part of The Global Reporting Initiative, which is a non-profit international standards organization that provides assistance to governmental/non-governmental organizations in communicating and understanding their effects on issues like corruption, human rights violations, and climate change. The goal of the GRI framework is to make it possible for third parties to evaluate the effects that the company's activities and supply chain, on the environment. Currently, GRI reports are the most widely used standard for reporting sustainability report.

Renewable Strategy and Services

In attempts to address climate change, UAE had launched the Green Economy Initiative for 2030 and UAE’s Net Zero by 2050, which aims to make the UAE one of the global pioneers in green economy products and technologies, and maintain a long-term sustainable environment. With Net-Zero 2050, there is a strong motivation for shift towards carbon-free energy sources, carbon capture-reduction, decreasing carbon footprint and green building strategies. Additionally, there’s aa growing need for a fuel that is an alternative to fossil fuel that is equally efficient and cost-effective. ADP offers consultation services for transition to renewable energy sources and sustainable environment.

Green Certification (LEED)

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a building rating system which provides a framework for green buildings that are healthy, have lower carbon emissions, efficient, and cost-effective. By meeting the prerequisites of LEED for carbon, energy, water, waste, transportation, materials, health, and indoor environmental quality, a project/building can earn points toward LEED certification. Eventually, LEED certification is chosen by project teams and owners to inform, benchmark, and celebrate their sustainability goals and accomplishments to consumers. The LEED certification is a globally accepted sign of sustainability and leadership achievement and with the certification, people are given the ability to select eco-friendly options that are in line with their project's vision and requirements.

Social Impact Assessment (SIA)

A social impact assessment involves conducting research, planning, and managing social change or consequences (both planned and unforeseen, positive and bad) resulting from projects, policies, regulations, and plans. The primary focus of an SIA is the significant effects of projects and developments that go beyond their effects on natural resources. The main purpose of an SIA is attaining a more ecologically, socio-culturally, and economically sustainable biophysical and human environment. A few examples of social impacts are:

  • People’s way of life – how people live, work, and interact in daily life
  • Culture – shared beliefs, values, customs, languages, etc.
  • Community – unity, stability, services, and amenities
  • Political System – the level of involvement in decision making, the level of democratization, the available resources to achieve it

Health and well-being – mental, physical, spiritual, and social well being

Archaeology Impact Assessment (AIA)

Projects that will or may have a major impact on the material cultural environment are subject to Archaeological Impact Assessment (AIA). AIA calls for a thorough examination of these consequences prior to making an educated and fair decision to approve the project. The decision-making authority must have access to the data that project proponents are required to supply. It enables NGO's and other organizations with significant environmental obligations a chance to remark before a permission is issued. Additionally, some data has to be made accessible for public review.

Even though some categories of information are necessary for decision making, each AIA must be customized in accordance with the project requirements. Furthermore, all AIA’s must be preceded by an Archaeological Appraisal and a Desk-base Assessment along with a governing brief and specification except when the Archaeology Authority specifically states the irrelevance in writing.

Public Consultation and Disclosure Plan (PCDP)

Public consultation and disclosure (PCDP) is included in ADP’s approach to environmental assessments for proposed developments or projects. This approach is designed to ensure that the needs and concerns of the community are considered in a transparent and effective manner.

The following elements are included in this process:

  • Involvement of public and relevant stakeholders: The public and relevant stakeholders are invited to participate in the environmental assessment process to provide feedback and raise concerns.
  • Provision of information: Accurate and up-to-date information about the proposed project is made available to the public and stakeholders through public meetings, online forums, and surveys.
  • Encouragement of feedback: Feedback and concerns from the public and stakeholders are incorporated into the environmental assessment and project planning process.
  • Development of a disclosure plan: A comprehensive disclosure plan is developed to outline how the results of the environmental assessment will be shared with the public and relevant stakeholders.

Socio-Economic Survey

A socio-economic survey from an environmental consultancy perspective involves assessing the potential social and economic impacts of a proposed development or project before it is implemented. At ADP, our team of experts uses a combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods to conduct socio-economic surveys, ensuring that the project is socially and economically feasible and sustainable, focusing on the following key aspects:

  • Examining the social and economic conditions of the area where the project will be located, such as population demographics, employment opportunities, and community resources.
  • Identifying any potential social and economic impacts associated with the proposed project.
  • Providing recommendations for mitigation or avoidance measures to ensure project is socially and economically feasible and sustainable.

Fisheries liaison and Mitigation

Fisheries liaison and mitigation is a critical aspect of environmental consultancy that focuses on assessing and minimizing the impact of development and infrastructure projects on aquatic ecosystems and fish populations. The process begins by thoroughly examining and evaluating the potential impact on fish habitats, migration patterns, and breeding grounds. Based on this analysis, our team of experts at ADP work closely with our clients to develop and implement effective mitigation measures that minimize or avoid negative impacts on fish populations and habitats, while ensuring compliance with relevant regulations and guidelines. We understand the importance of maintaining the balance of aquatic ecosystems, and we continue to support our clients throughout the project by monitoring the effectiveness of mitigation measures, thus ensuring sustainable development.
