Environmental Guidance Plans, Kazakhstan

Acorn International prepared guidance documents for a development project for a major international oil and gas company in Kazakhstan to help the client meet the requirements of its Management System.

The documents were prepared to assist the company’s contractor in ensuring that all local, international, and corporate requirements for protection of the environment in areas of biodiversity, waste management, air emissions and environmental design basis were met.

For each topic, Acorn International identified relevant regulatory or corporate requirement references, information that the contractor would need to meet those requirements, suggestions for minimizing or mitigating potential environmental impacts and recordkeeping requirements.

Where possible, Acorn International recommended international best practices for environmental protection.
