Development

 

In the process of developing and constructing an entity, a number of activities on site impact the environment and plans often change.  These changed plans must be evaluated to ensure additional damage is not being imposed on the environment, and that the new potential damage or changes (anthropogenic influences) do not cause the development to become non-compliant with environmental legislation.  At EM Assistance we offer advice and services to ensure that our clients remain compliant through the duration of construction.
