Initial Environmental Review


2/39

What exactly is an Initial Environmental

Review?

It provides a snapshot of a companys

performance at a particular point in time.

It highlights a companys environmental impacts

allowing action to be taken where it is mostrequired.

The purpose is to find and evaluate as many

areas as possible in which the company canimprove its environmental performance.


3/39

Approach and methods:

Process maps outlines the process

requirements (i.e. resources) and the outputs

including wastes, emissions and by-products

that serve as a baseline for identifyingenvironmental aspects.

Inputs: rawmaterials;energy,

resources

PROCESS

Outputs:emissions;

by-products;wastes

Definition

Severity

Is an assessment of the seriousness of the effect (environmental

impact) to the cause (environmental aspect) to the environment.

Occurrence

How frequently the specific environmental aspect is projected to

occur (the occurrence number has a meaning rather than a value)

DetectionIs an assessment of the probability that the existing operational

control(s) or monitoring and measurement(s) will detect

environmental aspect performance weakness, deterioration or

degradation.
