When a PSI is not enough: Detailed Site Investigation in Australia
When a PSI cannot close contamination questions, a DSI is required. NEPM Schedule B2 purpose, SAQP, CSM refinement, media and state practice.

Asbestos Source Assessment and Clearance for a Development Site, South-West Sydney
iEnvi provided an independent asbestos source assessment and post-removal clearance at a greenfield development in south-west Sydney. The assessment determined the fragment originated from a historic stockpile, verification testing returned no asbestos detected, and the site was cleared to progress with development.
Metropolitan Bus Depots – Environmental Compliance and Investigations
Practical environmental investigations and compliance audits across four Melbourne bus depots established a defensible baseline, identified localised hydrocarbon impacts near refuelling areas, confirmed no landfill‑gas risk from adjacent closed tips, and delivered reporting and management measures to meet Victorian regulatory expectations.
From an EPA Clean-Up Notice to a Clear Path Forward
How a targeted investigation, waste classification testing and a pragmatic remediation strategy closed data gaps for asbestos‑contaminated imported fill in north‑west Sydney — turning a NSW EPA Clean‑Up Notice into a compliant, cost‑efficient remediation pathway.
From Quarterly to Biannual: Groundwater Monitoring that Keeps Risk Low
Practical groundwater monitoring that confirms monitored natural attenuation, meets regulator expectations, and supports a safe transition from quarterly to biannual sampling with clear triggers and contingency planning.
Confident Acquisition Backed by Targeted Environmental Checks
Targeted, NEPM‑aligned due diligence (PSI + simple tenant lines of enquiry) to give fast, proportionate assurance for acquisition and staged redevelopment of an industrial site in South Australia — reserving intrusive investigation for clearly observed triggers.
Building Confidently on a Closed Landfill: Gas Risk Assessment and a practical CEMP
How a lean, risk‑focused contaminated‑land approach gave a community sports club a construction‑ready landfill gas assessment and a practical Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) so the clubhouse could be built safely, on time and on budget.
Baseline Environmental Condition Investigation – Western Melbourne Bus Depot
iEnvi completed a Baseline Environmental Condition Investigation (BECI) at an established western Melbourne bus depot to meet Department of Transport & Planning requirements. Targeted soil and groundwater testing (10 soil bores and monitoring wells) found no significant contamination; a Fuel System Operating Plan (FSOP) was recommended and reporting provided regulator‑defensible documentation under Victoria’s Environment Protection Act 2017.
