Environmental considerations increasingly influence how projects are planned, approved, and delivered. CDM Smith helps clients manage this complexity through integrated environmental impact assessment services that combine technical studies, regulatory insight, and stakeholder engagement.
We support projects from early screening through detailed assessment and mitigation planning, addressing risks across air, noise, ecology, water, geology, heritage, and socio-environmental factors—embedding environmental requirements into design and delivery to reduce risk and support sustainable outcomes.
We deliver environmental impact assessments and supporting studies for infrastructure and development projects, addressing air quality, noise and vibration, geology and soil, ecology (flora and fauna), surface water and ground water resources, archaeological resources and cultural heritage, marine environment and socio-environmental considerations.
CDM Smith supports clients through environmental permitting and approval processes, working closely with regulators and stakeholders to address concerns and maintain project momentum.
We develop project‑specific mitigation measures and environmental management plans that reduce risk during design, construction and operation ensure compliance with approval requirements and minimize long‑term environmental and social impacts.
Our EIA services are integrated across planning, design, and delivery teams, incorporating life cycle analysis to ensure environmental considerations are embedded early and carried through to implementation.
