Enviro Pro developed and applied environmental evaluation criteria for proposed irrigation schemes, prepared Initial Environmental Examination Reports according to Asian Development Bank's (ADB) environmental safeguard policies for sub-projects. This project also involved providing the framework process for environmental and spatial assessment along the west coast of Aceh Province. Finally, Enviro Pro also assisted with the GIS development for project's environmental screening database, showing environmentally sensitive areas.

Enviro Pro prepared an initial environmental examination (IEE) or environmental impact assessment (EIA) and a summary IEE or summary EIA for the whole project, in accordance with applicable national standards and in line with ADB requirements. Also, Enviro Pro synchronized environmental assessment requirements between GoI and ADB.
2012 Bioretention Basin at Glyndebourne Condominium
A bio-retention basin detains and treats stormwater runoff from 4.5% its development’s total site area. Other features include a timber boardwalk that leads to the bio-retention basin as well as viewing decks overlooking it. As a holistic approach, informative signages aimed at educating residents and visitors about the flora and fauna as well as the principle of the bio-retention basin can be found within the development.
Enviro Pro was involved in the design and building of the bio-retention basin. This project achieved PUB-ABC Certification in 2012.
Key Design Concepts
Bioretention basin – The basin removes impurities in the influent water by fine filtration, adsorption and biological uptake by plants and microbes attached to plants roots within the cleansing layer. The basin also temporarily store stormwater runoff before conveyance to main public drainage system.
