The constant deterioration of our environment is one of the greatest problems facing our generation. The increase in air pollution and the soil and water environment is directly and indirectly a significant health and environmental risk factor. Soil contamination, in turn, may be deposited into the aquatic environment as a result of leaching of harmful substances, causing contamination of surface, ground and underground waters. Proper assessment of soil and water pollution and the determination of the environmental risk in a given area is therefore the basis for any arrangements related to the determination of liability for environmental damage.
The costs of land reclamation, in the case of some types of soil and water pollution, may exceed the cost of real estate, therefore it is extremely important to identify the types of pollution occurring in a given area and their origin. Many entrepreneurs, faced with the prospect of having to bear the costs of restoring the environment to proper condition, decide to take remedial measures before there is serious financial responsibility.
In addition, undertaking activities aimed at auditing the correctness of operation in accordance with specific requirements and standards, as well as having properly prepared environmental / health and safety documentation, is currently a process that allows to fulfill the imposed legal obligations in the field of dynamically changing legislation in the field of environmental protection and other related areas.

When it concerns:
Cooperation procedure in the scope of conducting an audit in the field of environmental protection / occupational health and safety:
 | Au Audit, i.e. analysis of the scope of use of the environment, environmental, health and safety documentation and other compliance with legal requirements resulting from acts and permits. |
 | Preparation of a report on compliance with the requirements of Polish law along with the development of corrective actions necessary to be implemented |
 | Further advice on the implementation of recommendations resulting from the compliance report |
Cooperation procedure in the scope of conducting environmental audits, the so-called EDD (ang. Environmental Due Diligence) - phase I I and phase II, allowing to identify the source of origin, types of pollutants and their concentration:
Phase I of the EDD Environmental Audit
The main goal of Stage I, apart from checking compliance with formal and legal obligations in relation to the environment by a given company, is to collect information on potential sources of pollution and the threats they pose by:
Phase II of the EDD Environmental Audit
Phase II activities focus on determining the characteristics of the soil and water environment and interpreting the results in terms of pollution in accordance with the requirements of Polish law.
From the areas classified as probable pollution areas around the potential sources identified in Phase I, samples (soil and / and groundwater / groundwater) are taken and then analyzed to determine the concentration of potential pollutants. The result of the activities carried out is a report containing information on:
Phase III of the EDD Environmental Audit
It is a phase that includes detailed design and execution of reclamation or remediation works, identified contamination of the soil and water environment.
