Environmental Aspects & Impacts Register
The University's Environmental Aspects & Impacts Register is an important part of the environmental management system, capturing and quantifying all environmental risks posed by the University's operations, and the associated risk controls employed.
An environmental aspect is an element of an organisation's activities, products or services that can interact with the environment.
An environmental impact is any change to the environment, whether adverse or beneficial, wholly or partially resulting from an organisation's environmental aspects.
