Before you submit an environmental permit application, it’s worth having a second, expert pair of eyes on it. Missing information or weak supporting evidence is one of the most common reasons applications stall with the regulator, and our Permit Application Gap Analysis service reviews your proposed submission and flags what’s missing before it becomes a delay.
Our environmental permit applications and support service can also help identify the permits and consents your business needs, prepare the application and liaise with the relevant regulator.
What to expect
Our environmental consultants, who have established relationships with the relevant regulatory bodies, review your proposed application along with any supporting information and evidence. Where there are gaps or improvements to be made, we set these out in an action plan so you know exactly what to address before you submit.
We also audit existing permits to check ongoing compliance, not just applications that haven’t gone in yet. If the review identifies that your permitted activities or conditions need to change, we can help you prepare an environmental permit variation application.
If you need more than a review of an application, we can also manage the full environmental permit application process, from identifying the correct permit through to preparing and submitting the supporting documentation. Where an application requires an H1 assessment, we can also help ensure the relevant screening and supporting evidence are in place. Find out more about our H1 environmental risk assessments.
Key benefits of a Permit Application Gap Analysis
- Confirms your application meets regulatory requirements before you submit
- Identifies missing information early, rather than after a regulator query
- Guidance from a consultant who already knows what your regulator expects to see
- Reduces the risk of delays or a rejected application
