Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – Pre-Environmental Project Management

Q: What is environmental project management?

Environmental project management involves the planning, coordination, and oversight of environmental aspects within a project — such as site investigations, contaminated land remediation, asbestos management, waste classification, and compliance with environmental regulations. It ensures your project meets legal, safety, and sustainability requirements from start to finish.

Q: Who needs environmental project management services?

Environmental project management is essential for developers, builders, councils, contractors, and anyone working on land that may be contaminated or environmentally sensitive. It’s especially important for projects involving excavation, demolition, remediation, or redevelopment of former industrial, agricultural, or legacy-use sites.

Q: What does an environmental project manager do?

An environmental project manager oversees environmental assessments, liaises with regulators, manages consultants and contractors, and ensures compliance with environmental legislation. At Confluence Environmental, we act as your trusted advisor, managing everything from site assessments and sampling to remediation, validation, and regulatory sign-off.

Q: What types of projects require environmental oversight?

Projects that may require environmental project management include:

  • Land subdivisions and residential developments

  • Commercial and industrial redevelopments

  • Infrastructure upgrades (e.g. roads, pipelines, utilities)

  • Demolition or remediation of contaminated or asbestos-affected sites

  • Any development subject to planning or environmental conditions

Q: Do I need environmental management for a DA or council approval?

Yes — many Development Applications (DAs) or planning permits require environmental due diligence, such as Preliminary Site Investigations (PSI), Detailed Site Investigations (DSI), or Remedial Action Plans (RAP). Our team can prepare these documents and manage the compliance process with your local council or planning authority.

  • Offering Certified Environmental Practitioner (CEnvP) oversight if needed
