ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING + ASSESSMENT

Review of Environmental Factors (REFs)

Navigate Environmental Planning & Assessment with our Review of Environmental Factors service. We assess and identify the potential environmental impacts of proposed activities under relevant planning and environmental requirements. We consider all possible matters affecting or likely to affect the environment, including threatened species, ecological communities and their habitats.

Statement of Environmental Effects (SoEEs)

Establish a robust framework with our Statement of Environmental Effects service. Our team helps you develop SoEEs that detail project impacts, planning considerations, and proposed mitigation measures to support development approval pathways. We outline the environmental impacts of development and the steps to be taken to protect the environment or to lessen the expected harm to the environment. 

Strategic Environmental Impact Assessments (SEIAs)

Gain insights into the environmental impacts of your projects through our Strategic Environmental Impact Assessments service. We evaluate the broader environmental and socio-economic risks, opportunities, and cumulative impacts to support strategic planning, policy development, and programs. While considering these factors alongside innovating and advanced methods, our assessments support your organisation to avoid and mitigate environmental degradation and detrimental social impacts of development projects whilst optimising benefits, improving governance, and increasing coherence in strategic planning. 

Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs)

Identify, evaluate, and mitigate potential environmental impacts across projects, helping clients meet approval requirements and strengthen environmental performance.

Construction Environmental Management Plans (CEMPs)

Establish a comprehensive strategy to manage and minimise the environmental impacts of a construction project with our Construction Environmental Management Plans. Our teams help develop site-specific management plans that guide environmental controls, responsibilities, and monitoring requirements throughout the construction phase. A CEMP is crucial to construction projects, and at 7th Sense, we move beyond the legal compliance checklist to provide a detailed action plan that offers significant benefits. 

Operational Environmental Management Plans (OEMPs) 

Enhance your performance with our Operational Environmental Management Plans. We provide specific guidance related to the operational activities associated with a facility, providing roles and responsibilities for mitigation, monitoring, and performance assessment. We cover the full scope of a project’s operational phase, ensuring that each environmental issue and activity are to be addressed during the operational phase of the development. 

Environmental Representative engagement

Understand the full scope of your environmental performance with our Environmental Representative Engagement service. With our certified environmental representatives, we provide independent environmental monitoring and advice to support compliance, audits, and performance. From reviewing management plans to conducting regular inspections, our experts are highly experienced in monitoring and modifying projects to align with approval conditions and minimise environmental harm.

Environmental Site Management

Ensure public health and safety and environmental protection with our Environmental Site Management service. We support on-site environmental performance through strategies and regulatory controls aimed at minimising ecological disruption. Through training and capacity building, we add value to a project by reducing the likelihood of impacts to public health and the environment from development or construction activity.
