Environmental Consultancy

Rapid developments have resulted significant impact on the environment. During the last few years, all the concerned authorities have realised that development cannot be sustained unless the environment is protected. Hence, most of the governments in the world have made it mandatory for project owner to carryout Environmental Impact Assessment "EIA" for their existing or proposed project(s) and prepare Environmental Management and Monitoring Plans (EMMPs) so that the Environmental Quality is protected.

As per the existing laws in the UAE, Federal Law No. (24) of 1999 for the "Protection and Development of the Environment" is applicable to industrial operations. This umbrella law has Executive By-Laws which separately address air pollution, environmental impact assessment, hazardous materials and wastes, among many others.

An EIA report states the current environmental condition of the project site, provides details about the existing project, provides an assessment of the potential and probable environmental impacts associated with the project, and recommends mitigation measures and monitoring efforts at a level of detail that satisfies the relevant authority.
