Regulatory Liaison and Planning Expertise

EDSR have a comprehensive knowledge of working on contaminated sites including former agrochemical, pharmaceutical and industrial works and understand the issues associated with these sites. Our knowledge of the regulatory framework is based on delivering our clients projects in the real world and working closely with regulators to comply with current, emergent and developing policies.

Our model for environmental transfer, i.e. the process by which a site is cleaned up and sold on to a third party, has been successfully implemented on a large number of projects across a range of sectors throughout the UK.

We understand the complex regulatory procedures and responsibilities required by current legislation and can liaise with all levels of government and other appropriate regulatory bodies on our clients’ behalf. Our planning experts ensure that we are aware of all regulatory requirements in the field of sustainable regeneration. If required we can manage relationships with Environmental Health Departments, the Environment Agency, County Councils, Parish Councils and the local community.

Planning and Developmental Impacts

EDSR has an excellent knowledge of the environmental and town planning regulatory requirements of industrial site regeneration. Our consultants provide real world solutions designed to minimise the impact of regeneration and development schemes on a local environment. Through addressing regulatory needs and community concerns at an early stage, we help develop solutions that meet the needs of all stakeholders and ensure an efficient approval process.
