Environmental Impact Assessment: Practical Solutions to Recurrent Problems Book by David P. Lawrence 3

Environmental Impact Assessment: Practical Solutions to Recurrent Problems Book by David P. Lawrence

This book challenges the prevailing assumption that Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) should be structured around a unitary EIA process. The book begins by identifying, through a scenario, eight recurrent problems in EIA practice. The characteristics of multiple variations of conventional EIA processes, at both the regulatory and applied levels, are then presented. The residual problems

Reuse of Materials and Byproducts in Construction: Waste Minimization and Recycling by Alan Richardson & Alan Richardson 7

Reuse of Materials and Byproducts in Construction: Waste Minimization and Recycling by Alan Richardson & Alan Richardson

The construction industry is the largest single waste producing industry in the UK. Ensuring a supply chain of recycled materials affords many potential gains, achieved through: reducing the material volume transported to already over-burdened landfill sites, possible cost reductions to the contractor/clientwhen considering the landfill tax saved and the potential for lower cost material replacements,areduction
