Our Process

Boswa Environmental Consulting follows a structured and transparent approach to managing environmental authorisations, regulatory applications, and environmental compliance processes.

Our methodology ensures that projects comply with environmental legislation while allowing development to proceed responsibly and efficiently.

INITIAL CONSULTATION
PROJECT SCREENING & REGULATORY PLANNING
SPECIALIST STUDIES

The process begins with a consultation to understand the nature, location, and scope of the proposed development.

During this stage, we identify the environmental approvals that may be required, including:

  • Environmental Authorisation
  • Water Use Licence
  • Waste Management Licence
  • Mining Permit or Prospecting Right
  • Ecological Studies
  • Environmental Compliance Monitoring

Boswa conducts a desktop review and environmental screening to determine which legislation applies to the project.

The screening process may include:

  • Review of project information and proposed development footprint
  • Desktop environmental sensitivity screening using available spatial data
  • GIS mapping of environmental features including wetlands, watercourses, protected areas, and biodiversity priority areas
  • Identification of listed activities in terms of the EIA Regulations
  • Identification of additional approvals required in terms of applicable legislation
  • Preliminary consultation with relevant authorities where necessary

Boswa Environmental Consulting compiles an Environmental Screening Report summarising the findings of the preliminary investigation and providing guidance on the regulatory processes that may be required.

Where required, specialist studies are conducted to assess environmental impacts.

These may include:

  • Terrestrial biodiversity assessments
  • Ecological studies
  • Dust monitoring assessments
  • Rehabilitation planning
  • Environmental risk assessments

Boswa works with experienced specialists to ensure that all studies meet regulatory requirements.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION PROCESS
COMPILATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS
SUBMISSION TO AUTHORITIES

Public participation is conducted in accordance with the EIA Regulations.

This includes:

  • Stakeholder identification
  • Notification letters
  • Newspaper advertisements
  • Site notices
  • Public meetings
  • Comments and Responses Reports

This process ensures that Interested and Affected Parties are informed and consulted.

Boswa prepares the required environmental reports and applications for submission to the relevant competent authority.

These may include:

  • Basic Assessment Reports
  • Environmental Impact
  • Assessment Reports
  • Environmental Management Programmes
  • Water Use Licence Applications
  • Waste Management Licence Applications
    Specialist Reports

All reports and applications are prepared in accordance with applicable environmental legislation and regulatory requirements.

Boswa submits the application to the relevant authority and manages communication during the review process.

AUTHORISATION & COMPLIANCE

Once approval is granted, Boswa continues to support the client through:

  • Environmental Control Officer services
  • Compliance audits
  • Dust fallout monitoring
  • Reporting to authorities

This ensures that the project remains compliant during construction and operation.
