Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA)
Linear thinking and rational solutions are powerful in closed systems, but don't work so well in today's interactive – and inherently uncontrollable – project approval processes.
Coffey Environments’ history of environmental and social impact assessments has taught us to respect and focus on this journey, because it is along the way – more so than at the end – where the diverse views of the people of the project area, regulators, politicians and other stakeholders will decide the project's social licence to operate.
Capabilities:
- issue identification and stakeholder strategy
- negotiation of project-specific terms of reference
- environmental planning and the comparison of options
- project optimisation and impact assessment
- reports: project inception, impact assessment, baseline, management and monitoring
- stakeholder consultation
- project approvals and permit conditions.
