WHAT IS ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING?
Environmental Monitoring involves the systematic collecting, tracking and assessment of activities, processes and outputs to ensure compliance with environmental regulations for the quality of air, water and land, set by governing bodies such as The Environment Agency and The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA).
The main objective of environmental monitoring is always to mitigate the risks and minimise the impact an activity has on the natural environment and to ensure a business is appropriately in compliance with the laws and regulations for that industry.
Environmental monitoring involves the analysis of the local environment with tools in order to obtain accurate results, which are then presented in various types of risk assessments and environmental impact assessment reports.
Our Environmental Monitoring Services cover a wide range of considerations, including water and air quality, soil contamination, climate conditions, biodiversity plus noise and vibration levels.
It is a critical aspect of responsible business practice that promotes sustainability and minimises overall environmental impact.

TYPES OF ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING
Different industries and sectors require different types of Environmental Monitoring Services.
An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is usually necessary in order to assess the impact your organisation has on these areas of the surrounding environment and will often guide you in which types of environmental monitoring is required for your business.
The three core areas of environmental monitoring include Air, Land and Water:
- Air Monitoring: Also referred to as atmospheric monitoring, air monitoring helps detect substances being produced and emitted into the external environment. Such as emissions testing from chimney stacks, the monitoring of ambient air, bioaerosols and odours.
- Soil Monitoring: This type of environmental monitoring usually involves the sampling of Composts, Soils, Ground Gases and Ground-borne Vibrations.
- Water Monitoring: Helps to assess the quality of water such as Ground Water, Surface Water, Waste Water and Leachates and the surrounding areas via various sampling methods.
