Environment

Description :

The Manual provides simple, informative guidance on the key environmental issues that face most construction projects and the steps that must be taken both to ensure compliance with legal duty and, through the application of good practice, to ensure the environment is adequately protected.

It is ideal for Site Managers and Supervisors of main contractors and sub contractors. In particular it should help Project Managers, Site Agents, Site Foremen and Engineers address environmental issues in a practical way.

Written by Environmental Managers and Advisors who represent a wide cross section of the UK’s leading construction companies. It's main advantage over other guidance documents is that it is written by environmental professionals who actually work full-time within construction, and as such, are aware of the challenges faced by the industry. It covers:

• Introduction to Environmental Management
• The legislative process
• Register of Legislation
• Waste
• Water
• Nuisance
• Ecology
• Heritage
• Brownfield

It is easily updated to keep pace with the changing legislation, through subscription. Amendments are produced twice yearly.
