We serve clients in all our core industries, including all three tiers of government as well as non-government organisations and the private sector. Our clients are commonly stakeholders in the management of coastal and riparian lands and waters, mining companies, proponents of development, policy makers, planners, regulators, and parties opposing development. Our senior staff are often called upon to act as an 'expert witness’ before a range of jurisdictions.

If it involves water, it involves frc environmental.

We have only one approach - to exceed our client's expectations in terms of both the technical outcome, and the manner in which that outcome is delivered.

Below are some examples of projects we have undertaken.
