OUR SERVICES
We carry out a broad range of risk assessments, investigations, permit applications and monitoring across the full spectrum of environmental regulation.
Potentially Contaminated Land Investigation and Risk Assessment

All our work is undertaken in accordance with UK Government Land Contamination Risk Management (LCRM) guidance, and we seek to breakdown this complex field of guidance and regulation in an accessible format for our clients.
