Planning applications for development schemes of particularly large scale will typically necessitate an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA).
The process of EIA is very comprehensive and such usually focuses upon key strategic and environmental concerns highlighted via the local planning authority through issue of a formal ‘Scoping Opinion’.
JHG Planning Consultancy has experience in producing Environmental Statements for a range of projects including major scale poultry farms, waste management facilities and power stations. We work in close association with specialists in the fields of archaeology/heritage, ecology, air quality, transport, drainage and acoustics. Our approach achieves conformity with EIA regulations and best practice guidance.

The Environmental Statement produced for poultry farm and biogas facility EIA at Holdingham, Sleaford, was considered to accord with all best practice guidance following LPA funded independent critique by URS Infrastructure & Environment UK Ltd
