After my first batch of construction site environmental auditing for 2012, it's reassuring that the number of construction related activities has slimmed to a trickle. By working with site managers, sometimes over several years, their environmental awareness has grown without sending them on courses which takes them away from sites and can be expensive.
I've also noticed a more open approach of sites wanting to approach regulators, their clients and internal management about environmental issues, which indicated increased awareness.
Environmental specialist still need to give support and take pressure off sites, but working together, rather than the "healty & safety police" is the way to go and has worked well with some of the long relationships I've developed with clients, some not into their 6th year.
