Environmental Monitoring

Landfill and Waste licence monitoring

ECOFACT is currently involved in the biological monitoring of a number of landfill sites both in Ireland (Tramore, Bottlehill, Knockharley, Fassaroe, Youghal) and Northern Ireland (Culmore, Derry).

Further environmental monitoring projects completed by ECOFACT include aquatic and ecological monitoring of quarry sites and quarry extension licensing applications.

ECOFACT also carry out long term biological water quality monitoring at a large Irish Cement plant, as a requirement of their waste license.

Monitoring of construction projects

ECOFACT is currently involved in a number of large scale ecological and environmental monitoring contracts for major construction sites, with some significant monitoring projects just completed.

We have been commissioned to undertake ecological site monitoring during the construction stage of a number of national road schemes; pipeline and sewerage schemes; and large scale flood alleviation and main drainage schemes.

ECOFACT can offer the highest level of ecological consultancy and best practice in this regard, with significant experience in progressing ecological constraints on site to ensure all construction projects progress with the minimum of impact to the natural environment. Competency in ecological monitoring allows for significant issues such as protected species, to be highlighted and addressed early in the construction works, to avoid delays later in the project.

It is our strong commitment to ecology and the natural environment that ensures we deliver the best available product to our clients, both to ensure a fast and efficient construction process, while minimising ecological impacts.
