Q. Show Environmental Conditions for plant?

Data on the following environmental factors are required to support the design layout and choice of the most appropriate orientation of a new facility:

• Location topography (e.g. slope of site, visibility of the plant from adjacent properties).

• Geographic location and position.

• Wind direction, magnitude and patterns.

• Surface Water conditions.

• Air quality (Ambient air temperatures, humidity, and special conditions (e.g. dust or corrosive atmosphere).

• Seismic factors.

• Surface and sub-surface soil conditions.

• Groundwater.

• Sensitivities of natural waterways.

• Sensitivities of flora and fauna.

Environmental data is also critical to the final determination of:

• Geomatics.

• Substructure, foundations, drainage, etc.
