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.
2010 - 2013 Cleansing Biotope at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park
The redevelopment of Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park was part of a joint initiative by the Public Utilities Board (PUB) and National Parks Board (NParks) under the Island-wide Active, Beautiful and Clean (ABC) Waters Master Plan. The concrete canal has been de-concretised and naturalised into a beautiful 3 km meandering river, bringing park users closer to the water way. Addition to the naturalised river, the park also features natural cleansing biotopes that uses plants to treat water and maintain the water quality of the ponds in the park without the use of chemicals. Enviro Pro was involved in the construction of cleansing biotope of around 4500 m2. The biotopes help to improve water quality while providing an aesthetic element for the park.
Key Design Concept
• Cleansing Biotope – Offers effective water treatment which involves the filtering of pollutants through phytoremediation. It helps to improve water quality without
any addition of chemical while improving the aesthetic of the park.
