Case History: Marine Ecological Surveys Ltd. was commissioned to carry out a full appraisal of environmental resources in the vicinity of a proposed major chemical complex to be constructed on the east coast of Peninsula Malaysia. By working closely with the Malaysian Department of the Environment, the company drew up detailed terms of reference for identifying those environmental resources requiring protection in the vicinity of the development. It was also able to interact closely with the client on specific measures to reduce the risk of environmental damage after construction of the plant. The client was required to operate to high standards to meet regulatory requirements and to comply with parent company policy: also to ensure project approval with minimum delay. Following commissioning of the plant, Marine Ecological Surveys Ltd. was retained to carry out twice-yearly audits. The subsequent performance of the plant was of such a standard that the client was awarded the prestigious Malaysian "Better Environment Award" for excellence in the Chemical Industry Sector.
