We Help Clients Navigate Environmental Permitting with Confidence

We help investors, industrial companies, and public-sector organizations successfully navigate environmental permitting processes.

We do more than prepare mandatory documentation. We identify practical and efficient solutions that save time and costs while meeting regulatory requirements and performing effectively in real-world operations. Throughout the entire process—from project planning to ongoing operation—we serve as an experienced and equal professional partner to both our clients and the permitting authorities.

Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC)

We provide comprehensive support in preparing applications for new integrated permits as well as amendments to existing permits. Our services include the preparation of technical documentation, coordination of related studies, participation in meetings with regulatory authorities, and, where necessary, preparation of supporting documents for appeals and other legal remedies.

As part of integrated permit applications, we also regularly prepare:

  • Dispersion studies
  • Noise studies
  • Operating procedures and operational rules
  • Emergency response plans under the Water Act
  • Assessments under the Major Accident Prevention Act
  • Expert opinions under the Air Protection Act

We are fully equipped to prepare these essential documents and include them as part of an integrated permit application. Our company holds official authorizations issued by the Ministry of the Environment for the preparation of both air dispersion studies and expert opinions.

Our assessments are always based on the actual conditions of the facilities being evaluated. Following the compilation of input data and the preparation of environmental and operational balances, we identify potential issues and highlight them at an early stage so they can be effectively addressed during subsequent phases of the project. Our evaluations take into account the real-world capabilities and operational circumstances of the installations concerned.

Our services also include participation in both internal consultations and formal public administrative proceedings related to integrated permit applications, as well as the incorporation of comments and requirements arising from these proceedings until the relevant permit is successfully obtained.

We also prepare complete documentation for applications requesting derogations from emission levels associated with Best Available Techniques (BAT), including expert assessments pursuant to Section 14(5) of the Integrated Pollution Prevention Act. As part of these assessments, we can also provide related supporting documentation, particularly economic evaluations of BAT feasibility and achievability.

Environmental Impact assessment (EIA)

We guide our clients through the entire EIA process and prepare all required documentation and supporting studies. A well-prepared EIA submission can significantly reduce the overall duration of the permitting process and minimize additional requirements from authorities and stakeholders.

Screening Notification for Sub-threshold Projects
For projects below statutory EIA thresholds, it is essential to correctly assess potential environmental impacts and provide the authorities with sufficiently robust supporting information. Inadequate notifications that lack key data or proposed mitigation measures often result in unnecessary extensions of the process and avoidable delays.

Project Notification
For Category II projects, we prepare project notifications in accordance with Annex 3 of Act No. 100/2001 Coll., including all required supporting documentation.
Our objective is to provide the competent authority with all relevant information at the earliest stage of the procedure. In many cases, this allows the process to be concluded during the screening phase, resulting in substantial time savings compared to a full Environmental Impact Assessment procedure.
Supporting documentation typically includes:

  • Air dispersion studies
  • Noise assessments
  • Ecological and landscape-impact assessments
  • Cumulative impact assessments

All project notifications are prepared by professionals authorized under Act No. 100/2001 Coll.
Our company also holds official authorizations issued by the Ministry of the Environment to prepare air dispersion studies and expert environmental opinions.

EIA Documentation
For projects subject to the full EIA procedure, we prepare EIA documentation in accordance with Annex 4 of Act No. 100/2001 Coll. We put particular emphasis on technical accuracy, clarity, and the practical defensibility of proposed solutions. Our services include coordination of multidisciplinary expert teams, communication with project designers and engineers, and ongoing support for investors throughout the review and consultation process. An integral part of our service is the incorporation of comments and requirements raised by authorities during the permitting process, all the way through to the issuance of the final approval. We therefore offer much more than the preparation of a single document—we provide guidance and support throughout the entire permitting process.

Our team holds authorization under Section 19 of Act No. 100/2001 Coll. for the preparation of EIA documentation, expert reviews, and environmental assessments.
