Air emissions permit application support

From process information to emissions documentation

We identify processes and emission sources within the application boundary and their relationships. We collect information on materials, fuels, equipment, exhaust arrangements and operating hours. For modifications, existing documentation is compared with the proposed solution. Supplier information and previous measurement results are reviewed for their relevance to the operating arrangements being assessed rather than transferred without context.

This evidence supports emission calculations and the analyses needed for the application. Assumptions and methods are selected with regard to the process and available information. We check consistency between emission quantities, release-point characteristics and operating scenarios, identifying material data gaps for clarification. Findings are presented in connection with the installation's technical description and its surroundings.

The documentation explains the assessment conditions and the basis of values presented in the application, enabling the operator to relate it to actual installation use. The service covers an application with calculations. Separate measurements or design of technical modifications are agreed according to the specific task rather than included by default within the documentation commission.

Environmental supervision during construction

Connecting environmental conditions with construction activity

Supervision is planned around the project's decisions, documentation and proposed construction sequence. We identify conditions linked to particular stages, locations and working methods. With the construction team, we establish what information should be shared before activities begin and what records will be needed to document how the agreed environmental requirements have been addressed during the works.

During agreed supervision activities, we compare observed work with the relevant conditions and record the findings. We highlight discrepancies, questions requiring clarification and actions to be taken. An action register allows matters to be assigned and revisited at later stages, rather than leaving recommendations dispersed across correspondence or informal discussions between members of the site team.

The specialist scope and frequency of supervision are agreed for each project. Reports describe activities and conditions observed within those boundaries, not continuous observation of all construction work. If the programme or working method changes, we identify matters requiring reassessment so that supervision remains aligned with the actual tasks and environmentally significant stages.

Technical data

Environmental decision (DŚU) application support

Coordinating documentation for the environmental decision procedure

We begin by defining the development, its preparation stage and the studies already available. We establish the technical, site and specialist information required and how to keep it consistent. A clear project boundary is essential so that appendices, assessments and explanations do not describe different parameters for the same proposed installation or development option.

We coordinate documentation suited to the identified procedure, involving the specialists needed for the project. We organise questions for the developer and designers and support preparation of explanations and supplementary material during the proceedings. Dependencies between updated documents are checked so that answering one question does not leave contradictory information elsewhere in the application package.

The service covers document preparation and procedural support within agreed boundaries, not a promise of a particular decision. Analyses may need to expand following issues raised in the proceedings or changes to the project. We explain the implications and agree the necessary additional work rather than treating the initial document list as fixed regardless of subsequent developments.

Technical data

Subject Project documentation for the Polish environmental decision (DŚU) procedure
Service type Documentation preparation, coordination and procedural support
Assessment basis and requirements Project parameters, the applicable procedural route, documentation requirements and correspondence received from authorities.

Project information sheet (KIP)

A coherent project description at the KIP stage

The KIP starts with understanding what is proposed and how it will operate. We collect information on location, scale, technology, layout and the anticipated construction and operational stages. Where an existing facility is being changed, we distinguish current activities from the proposed works so that the description preserves the actual boundaries of the development under consideration.

We then identify environmental topics to be addressed in the information sheet. Necessary specialist analyses and mapping are prepared or coordinated and checked against the project description. Particular attention is given to emission sources, operating assumptions and relationships with the surroundings. Missing information is identified before assumptions are presented as final project parameters in the document.

The KIP is a separate document from a full environmental impact assessment report. Preparing it does not predetermine the subsequent procedure or replace every detailed study. Content is matched to the development and available information. Material concept changes are carried through to associated analyses and appendices so that the package continues to describe a consistent project.

Technical data

Subject The proposed development, its location and anticipated environmental impacts
Service type Project information sheet with supporting analyses and appendices
Assessment basis and requirements Project concept and technical data, site information and the information scope applicable to the Polish KIP.
Method
  1. Collect project parameters and information about the surroundings.
  2. Identify topics requiring specialist environmental analysis.
  3. Prepare the description, analyses and associated mapping.
  4. Check consistency of parameters between the KIP and its appendices.

Preliminary environmental screening of a project

Understanding the environmental route from the outset

A project title rarely provides enough information to establish its environmental context. We examine the actual work proposed, technological parameters, operating scale and links to existing infrastructure. For an expansion, we distinguish the current facility from the proposed change. This identifies the characteristics relevant to screening and aspects of the concept that the developer or designer needs to clarify.

We combine technical information with an initial review of the site and available documents. We identify possible procedures, dependencies between decisions and subjects requiring specialist assessment. Rather than immediately producing a full documentation package, we organise the sequence of work and highlight the information needed to define subsequent tasks with greater confidence and consistent assumptions.

The outcome is a preliminary assessment of the supplied concept, not an authority's decision or a complete application package. Changes to parameters, location or implementation can affect the recommended route. Assumptions and unresolved questions are stated clearly so that the team knows which findings need to be revisited as the project develops.

Technical data

Subject A new project concept or a proposed change to an existing installation
Service type Preliminary environmental and procedural screening
Assessment basis and requirements Concept parameters, site information and procedural requirements selected for the identified type of development.
Method

Environmental support during project design

Environmental requirements within the design process

Design develops across several disciplines, while information needed for environmental assessment often comes from different teams. We identify the solution parameters, operating conditions and layout features that may influence environmental impacts. Available decisions and earlier studies are reviewed to establish which assumptions should be retained and which need to be examined again as the project progresses.

Our role is to translate identified requirements into information designers can use. We specify data needed from suppliers, dependencies between disciplines and issues requiring further calculations. Proposed changes are discussed against the agreed project description. A record of matters to be agreed allows the team to distinguish resolved questions from those still open and needing an assigned response.

Environmental support does not replace designers' responsibility for their own disciplines. It provides guidance and identifies risks using the current design version. When material parameters change, we assess their effect on previous findings and identify analyses needing revision instead of automatically carrying earlier conclusions over to a different technical solution or operating scenario.

Technical data

Subject Design assumptions, equipment parameters and requirements for project disciplines
Service type Environmental design review and multidisciplinary coordination support
Assessment basis and requirements Current design documents, decisions relating to the development and technical data for the proposed solutions.
Method
  1. Identify design parameters relevant to environmental impacts.
  2. Review assumptions against documents and previous agreements.
  3. Prepare guidance and questions for designers and suppliers.
  4. Update the coordination record following changes to discipline designs.

Framework agreement and ongoing environmental support

Ongoing support shaped around your facility

Environmental support needs to address routine operations alongside changes to processes, equipment and working arrangements. We begin by reviewing the facility's activities, available decisions, existing documentation and data collection practices. Together, we identify matters requiring regular attention and issues arising from expansion or modernisation that need their own specialist assessment or documentation.

This review informs the scope of support, allocation of responsibilities and work schedule. We structure information flows between operations staff, project teams and technical specialists. Within the agreed scope, we review documents, prepare material for communication with authorities and explain how proposed changes affect the next steps. Periodic reporting makes open issues and completed actions visible to the team.

The framework agreement defines the boundaries of the service and how additional work is commissioned. Measurements, modelling or documentation for a new development are included only as agreed. Findings reflect the information available at the time, so significant changes at the facility provide a reason to revisit priorities and update the support plan.

Technical data

Subject Operational obligations, documentation and changes at the facility
Service type Ongoing advisory and coordination support
Assessment basis and requirements Facility decisions and records, the agreed service scope and requirements applicable to the matters being supported.
Method
  1. Review documents, processes and responsibility for supplying data.
  2. Agree priorities, a schedule and a route for raising new issues.
  3. Coordinate analyses and materials for the agreed obligations.
  4. Report progress periodically and update the action plan.

Waste generation permit application support

A waste balance connected to installation processes

We begin by tracing the production and supporting processes covered by the assignment. We establish where waste arises, what information is available and how streams may change at the proposed capacity or following modernisation. Existing operational data is distinguished from projections for a new solution so that historical quantities and application assumptions are not inadvertently combined.

We organise waste types and quantities, describe their origins and set out the agreed storage and handling arrangements. The balance is checked against operating parameters and source records supplied by the operator. Differences between process descriptions, records and forecasts are clarified, with missing information identified to support the adopted values and distinguish the individual waste streams.

The service concerns waste generation within a defined installation. This scope should not be confused with a permit for waste collection or treatment. The application describes the proposed waste management arrangements and their connection with the process, helping the operator relate the documentation to actual activities and understand how planned changes may affect the description prepared.

Technical data

Subject Waste streams generated by a defined installation
Service type Waste generation permit application and waste-stream balance
Assessment basis and requirements Process descriptions, operator records, capacity assumptions and documentation requirements relevant to the waste generation scope.
Method
  1. Connect waste generation points with the installation's processes.
  2. Collect waste type, quantity and handling information.
  3. Prepare the balance and check it against process assumptions.
  4. Develop the application with descriptions and support for adopted parameters.
Delivery model KFB Enviro with a partner/subcontractor

What you receive

You receive a waste generation permit application based on the installation's agreed waste-stream balance.

Workplace noise measurements

Assess noise in the context of the work being done

The sound level beside a machine is not the same as the exposure of a person working across several locations. We review tasks, shift organisation and process conditions to select a measurement strategy reflecting actual work. We also define the activities and employee groups represented by the survey and the task-duration information needed for assessment.

Measurements are connected to recorded activities and production conditions, then processed against the agreed description of a working day. We assess the significance of changing noise levels and events relevant to exposure. The report explains how task durations were used, keeping the assessment assumptions clear for those responsible for managing conditions within the facility.

Conclusions apply to the tasks investigated and the assumed organisation of work. Changes in workload, task duration or equipment may require reassessment. Results help identify areas needing attention, but do not replace a wider occupational risk assessment or the development and implementation of a noise reduction strategy across all of the facility's processes.

Technical data

Subject Employees' noise exposure while carrying out work tasks.
Service type Workplace noise measurements and exposure assessment.
Assessment basis and requirements Task characteristics, working-time arrangements and applicable occupational noise assessment requirements and methods.
Method
  1. Identify tasks, workstations and representative process conditions.
  2. Select the survey strategy and measure under working conditions.
  3. Calculate exposure using the duration of relevant activities.
  4. Assess results and explain the survey's representativeness.
