Water Environment

SKM Enviros' water environment offering

The UK and Ireland have a rich and varied water environment incorporating rivers, lakes, estuaries, wetlands, coastal areas and groundwater - an important but often overlooked resource. These features and environments fulfil a wide range of important roles including those relating to water supply, navigation and recreation in addition to their inherent ecological value.

The impact of human activities on this water environment is controlled through extensive legislation and must be considered in relation to both existing and proposed activities.

As a broad multi-disciplinary environmental consultancy, SKM Enviros is ideally placed to provide specialist technical advice across a full range of surface and groundwater services.
