Home / Projects Projects EMMP for construction of Transport Link to Malaysia April 9, 2021 All Projects, Environmental & Ecology TEMBUSU Asia Consulting was awarded an Environmental Management and Monitoring Plan (EMMP) project for the construction of LTA viaduct and tunnels for the transport link that will connect Malaysia and Singapore. The scope covers the development of a detailed construction EMMP framework during the pre-construction stage, outlining the mitigation and management measures for all environmental aspects to ensure that the proposed works do not adversely affect the environment surrounding the project site. In addition, a biodiversity management plan will be prepared along with a reporting system to monitor the implementation of the EMMP. A biodiversity awareness training will also be provided prior to construction activities to train the personnel on the ecological sensitivity of the site. Given that the project is located within a forested area, TEMBUSU Asia will provide support for monitoring the environmental aspects during the construction stage, especially on biodiversity issues. Environmental monitoring is a critical tool for assessing the effectiveness of EMMP and all recommended mitigation measures. This will help to mitigate the adverse impacts generated from the project’s activities, leading to the environmentally sustainable implementation of the development. Previous Back Next

Home / Projects Projects Site Assessment and Environmental Impact Study in Singapore March 4, 2020 All Projects, Environmental & Ecology TEMBUSU Asia Consulting together with our partner is awarded a consultancy service work comprising of three sites in the north-eastern part of Singapore where transportation facilities are planned. The scope covers the Site Assessment and Environmental Impact Study (EIS) works. The development of Site 1 includes the construction of a multi-storey development with underground transport operational facilities. The scope includes site investigation & assessment of the environmental impacts due to the proposed works within the former landfill site and design of the associated environmental control infrastructure. The development at Site 2 and Site 3 includes road works, a viaduct, and other ancillary works within an Identified Biodiversity Site (IBS). EIS is to be carried out to study impacts on the IBS due to the proposed road projects. The works include the collection of baseline survey data covering biodiversity, water quality, and noise quality. The data would then be analyzed to assess the environmental impacts associated with the construction and operational phases of the site based on the proposed development plan. This assessment would be the basis to recommend mitigation measures appropriate to the impacts assessed. An environmental management and monitoring plan would then be prepared to mitigate the adverse impacts during the construction stage. Previous Back Next

Home / Projects Projects Environmental Impact Study (EIS) For A Proposed Hotel Development Project In Singapore December 30, 2019 All Projects, Environmental & Ecology TAC is appointed to conduct an Environment Impact Study (EIS) for a proposed hotel development project that is located next to a petrol station. Per National Environmental Agency requirements, any new development sited within 50m of a petrol station needs to conduct an EIS to assess for potential environmental impacts arising from activities at the petrol station. The petrol station operation generates various impacts related to vapor fumes, odor, and noise. Vehicle movement for refueling and the presence of repair & maintenance activities on-site may cause noise impacts. Other activities, including bulk fuel transfer, storage tank venting, and motor vehicle filling, may also deteriorate the air quality and create environmental impacts on hotel development. The EIS will monitor levels of vapor fumes and noise to assess the potential impacts of petrol station activities on the proposed hotel development. The EIS report will provide recommendations to reduce impacts concerning the air quality and noise to acceptable levels as required by relevant environmental standards. Previous Back Next
