Review of Environmental Factors and Environmental Scoping Reports

Due diligence in decision making

Redleaf routinely completes Review of Environmental Factors reports and Environmental Scoping Reports for small and large road works project, developments, and infrastructure projects throughout eastern Australia. These investigations address the key environmental issues and risks at the site including a desktop review of the values, and often a field inspection to ground truth any values on site.

The assessment:

Will identify any approvals required for works (Clearing Permits, WWBW, Riverine protection permits)
Will identify any additional assessments that may be required (Protected Flora, Contamination)

Our reports will typically include:

Scope, study area, and methods
Desktop observations

Significant Impact assessment for MSES and MNES under state and federal legislation
Approvals and compliance requirements / recommendations
