Air Quality
Whether you are a commercial, industrial or government facility, you face the challenge of complying with air quality requirements while reducing operational costs and risks. Understanding the myriad requirements of Air Emission Regulations — addressing acid rain, urban pollution, and toxic air emissions — and their applicability to both small and large industries can be overwhelming.
Kenya has developed air emission regulations a demonstration and reflection of the expanding role air quality plays in our lives. It can directly influence land portfolio valuations, master plan designs and even the success of planning applications.
The Kenyan and Eastern Africa industries are faced with an increasingly complex range of regulations, legislation and guidance. In addition to air quality regulations, industrial operators are now subjected to stringent emissions trading schemes.
