You receive a scoped and regulator ready plan tailored to your site, activity, and approval conditions. We prepare CEMP, OEMP, and PEMP documents with risks, controls, monitoring, responsibilities, and reporting templates. Sub plans can include weed and dieback, erosion and sediment, stormwater, fauna, flora, rehabilitation, and offsets. Adjacent services such as surveys, offsets strategy, and agency liaison can be added, while contaminated sites, acoustics, and water quality testing are not included in this service.
This service is ideal for linear infrastructure, renewable energy, telecommunications, and land development where documented controls are required to start works. It suits principal contractors who need a plan that crews can follow in the field and that auditors can verify. Smaller subdivisions and single lots also benefit when conditions require a fit for purpose environmental plan South West WA. It is not intended for stand alone safety systems or quality management manuals.

Starting works without a clear plan risks incidents, stop work orders, and budget blowouts. Building your environmental plan early aligns engineers, supervisors, and regulators so issues are resolved before mobilisation. When tender deadlines or construction windows are approaching, a complete plan protects program and reputation. Early action keeps approvals moving and prevents last minute redesign.
Our specialists bring the insight, clarity, and reliability needed to deliver efficient, compliant, and stress-free project outcomes.
Senior consultants lead each project from start to finish. Each project is carefully overseen by a Certified Environmental Practitioner (CEnvP) accredited with EIANZ.

Main Roads (South West Region) has engaged Shane Priddle of SW environmental on several occasions over the past four years to undertake environmental assessments and fauna surveys as well as arrange for additional surveys by other consultants to supplement the assessment reports.
We have found that Shane communicates well, making appropriate inquiries to clarify issues, is helpfully suggestive and is responsive to feedback. He has shown that he is able to manage multiple projects to meet completion deadlines with quality reports for complex projects.
Shane has been engaged by NGH Environmental for a number of projects which I have managed. Shane has completed GIS mapping work and environmental impact assessment tasks. Shane has been an asset to the team due to his expertise in mapping combined with his impact assessment knowledge. I have found Shane’s work to be of a high quality and he has always been able to meet project deadlines. A couple of projects which Shane was involved in were complex, particularly the mapping due to numerous design changes and Shane’s background in ecology was invaluable. I would have no hesitation in recommending Shane to other clients.
Our group has found SW Environmental to be very professional. Shane has been very helpful in assisting us, and we have found his reports to be to be very thorough, delivered in a timely manner, and very good value for money. I am happy to recommend him for such projects.
On a project of this scale land access is one of the major hurdles for completing in a timely manner. Shane Priddle was in constant contact with Western Powers field officers discussing land access and the field officers were able to help sufficiently. What ensued was the timely delivery of a flora and fauna survey over a 300km long alignment.
The reports for the survey were of a high quality, specifically the maps that were produced were great and the GIS data was provided to Western Power is exactly what we were after.”
We were very pleased with the friendly, professional, honesty and cost effective services and will certainly engage SW Environmental for future services.
