Soil & Groundwater Monitoring Plans

If you’re responsible for managing a site that holds a SEPA (Scottish Environment Protection Agency) PPC (Pollution Prevention and Control) permit, preparing a comprehensive Soil and Groundwater Management Plan is likely part of your regulatory requirements. At IKM Consulting, we specialise in helping clients meet these obligations, providing tailored solutions to manage environmental compliance and minimise risks to soil and groundwater.

Why Soil and Groundwater Management is Essential for SEPA Compliance

A Soil and Groundwater Management Plan is a critical part of SEPA’s compliance framework, aimed at preventing contamination risks associated with hazardous substances and industrial processes. Our experienced team is here to streamline the preparation of this plan, ensuring your operations align with SEPA’s IED-TG-42 guidance on Soil and Groundwater Monitoring Technical Guidance for PPC Part A installations.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Soil and Groundwater Management

We provide a full suite of services designed to address the unique requirements of each site. Here’s how we help you navigate SEPA regulations with ease:

  • Site Process Review: Our team reviews your site’s processes and procedures to identify any steps that could pose a contamination risk.
  • Hazardous Substance Assessment: Using MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets), we identify Relevant Hazardous Substances (RHS) that may impact soil and groundwater.
  • Site Layout Assessment: We evaluate the layout and design of your site to determine potential areas of concern.
  • Conceptual Site Models and Cross-Sections: To aid in risk assessment, we create detailed models and cross-sectional diagrams.
  • RHS Risk Assessment: We conduct RHS risk assessments to locate areas where soil and groundwater might be at risk from site operations.
  • Site-Specific Monitoring Strategy: Our experts develop tailored monitoring plans that align with SEPA’s Soil and Groundwater Monitoring Technical Guidance, ensuring compliance.
