OFFSET MANAGEMENT SOUTH WEST WA

What You Get With Environmental Offsets

You receive a clear offset strategy that aligns with your approval conditions and regulator guidance. Deliverables can include offset calculations, land or planting options, implementation schedules, success criteria, and monitoring frameworks. We prepare maps, method statements, and reporting templates that contractors and auditors can use. Adjacent services such as rehabilitation plans, flora and fauna surveys, and agency liaison can be added, while contaminated sites and acoustics are outside this service.

OFFSET PLANNING AND DELIVERY

Best For Projects That Need Certainty

This service suits linear infrastructure, renewable energy, telecommunications, and land development where offsets are a condition of approval. It is ideal when clearing is unavoidable and you must demonstrate equivalent or better environmental outcomes. Smaller subdivisions and single lots also benefit when councils require proportionate offset actions. It is not intended for unrelated carbon projects or biodiversity banking outside WA policy settings.

Options commonly include land based protection, native vegetation restoration, or targeted habitat actions. Our clearing offset consultant team recommends a pathway that is achievable, measurable, and aligned with regulator expectations.

Quality Environmental Assessments Delivered On Time for Complex Project

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.

P. Swanson

Trusted Partner for Complex Infrastructure and Renewable Energy 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.

M. Terlick

Thorough Reports and Reliable Delivery Every Tim

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.”

Honest Advice, Professional Delivery and Cost-Effective Results
