Public participation is a standard component of most major development projects and is mandated as part of the environmental planning process by many lenders and governments. It is the principal method to engage stakeholders, form partnerships, and develop trust and respect in the affected communities throughout the project lifespan. The following activities are typically undertaken and managed by TRES Consult (T) Limited as part of the public participation process:

  • Introducing the project to local communities (This reduces risks and uncertainties).
  • Managing social issues includes identifying, collecting, assessing and monitoring, as appro­priate, information related to the key social issues that may arise during a project life cycle. Compilation of Baseline data and information
  • Advertising the project
  • Focus Group Meetings
  • Public Meetings
  • Issue Management

Social Impact Assessment covers range of impacts (both positive and negative) a project may have on the social environment and vice versa. The social environment encompasses local peoples (including their norms, values, beliefs and the way in which they live and interact with each other), their communities, their environment and their economy. The types of social impact and applicability of different impact mitigation measures vary depending upon the scale and type of the project components as well as the life-cycle stage. The Social Impact Assessment is undertaken as part of the EIA process and the public participation process forms the basis for data collection and analysis. TRES Consult (T) Limited employs a number of Social Scientists who has extensive experience in undertaking Social Impact Assessments

During leasing, acquisition and/or merger of companies, an organisation may find itself in a position where it has unknowingly inherited the inherent environmental liabilities of a specific industry and/or organisation. Environmental risks and liabilities are therefore important considerations when purchasing, acquiring or owning an organisation.

It is essential for the purchaser or owner to be appraised of the actual and/or potential financial implications, environmental liabilities and future environmental obligations. An environmental due diligence investigation will form part of the financial and legal due diligence exercise in respect of the company being acquired. In order to ensure that an organisation is protected from acquiring significant liabilities, TRES Consult (T) Limited can provide the organisation with a proactive due diligence investigation. Through proactive due diligence investigations, TRES Consult (T) Limited may assist organisations to make informed decisions based on the following aspects:

  • Identification of environmental issues
  • Assessment of issues in terms of level of risk
  • Quantification of financial implications
  • Status of environmental authorizations (including Water Use Licenses, Listed Activity Authorisations and Mining Licenses)
  • Assessment of commitments made in Environmental Management Plans or Programs (EMP)
  • Obligations and future commitments
  • Calculation of financial provisions
