Baseline studies

SGS has successfully completed environmental baseline studies at locations around the world.

It is the policy of the SGS Group to maintain a decentralized organization that places emphasis on individual responsibility to provide the best possible service to each client, regardless of that client’s location in the world. Our experts are indigenous to the areas in which they work. They speak the local language and are knowledgeable regarding local conditions, business practices and traditions.

TYPICAL WORK PROGRAMS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL BASELINE STUDIES INCLUDE:

• Collection, summarization and analysis of all applicable laws, regulations and guidelines.
• Inventory and analysis of all available natural environment and human resources information including:
  • Climate and meteorology
  • Air Quality
  • Surface Water
  • Biological and Ecological Environment
  • Land Use
• Contaminant transport mechanisms characterization.
• Determination of environmental and health impacts.
