Environmental Efficiency services

Environmental Efficiency produces AER (Annual Environmental Reports) for many organisations. For those organisations with IPPC licences, we can also produce the PRTR (Pollution Release and Transfer Register).

Certain activities, or activities that exceed a threshold, are required to have an IPPC licence or Waste licence. The application process is time consuming and requires a large quantity of information to be assembled. Environmental Efficiency have a great deal of experience in this area and can undertake the entire process. We have made licence applications for the printing, engineering, foundry, chemical and waste sectors.

The Environmental Protection Agency has issued Guidance notes on the preparation of Closure, Restoration and Aftercare Management Plans (CRAMP) and Environmental Liabilities Risk Assessment (ELRA).  Many IPPC licensed facilities are now required to prepare ELRAs and CRAMPs.

All industrial processes will have some effect on the environment, e.g noise audible outside the site boundary, oil leaks to the ground, or emissions to air.  There is much legislation in the environmental area and it is not easy for companies to assess whether they are in breach of this legislation.  It is therefore helpful to have an independent assessment of what are the significant environmental effects of a site and whether legislation is being breached.  An environmental audit will provide this information and make clear recommendations as to the appropriate course of action.
