Several UK commissions followed including a Master Plan development in Russia and advice on a national motorway project. The company then Project Managed the large ESIA for a new oil refinery in Cairo, Egypt and has recently completed management of an ESIA for 1100km of upgraded highway in Kazakhstan, part of the $3 billion investment in the road from China to Russia. The Company was then requested by the World Bank to develop the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) for the Project, to manage land acquisition and compensation for agricultural land, commercial structures and residences required for the Project. 2009 has seen the company provide EIA and EMP for motorways in Serbia for the World Bank and now EMP for the Qatar-Bahrain Causeway for the design consortium QBCC.

The company Director has 25 years’ experience across 25 countries, specialising in EIA, Environmental Management Planning and on-site construction of large scale infrastructure projects. Specialist inputs to major infrastructure projects started in the early 1990s; from 1996 to 1998 Andy was the Environmental Manager for the EMAP on the Jamuna Multipurpose Bridge Project in Bangladesh.

Andy was responsible for monitoring and supervising the contractor compliance to the established environmental standards and reporting the findings to the Government of Bangladesh and the International Financers, who included World Bank, Global Environment Fund, Japanese Bank et al.
The Environmental Management Plan worked in conjunction with the social/resettlement plan, which managed the enforced resettlement of over 100 000 people and provided alternative employment and income generating opportunities. Involved micro-credit from the newly established Grameen Bank.
