EnvironMine Data Services was established in 2007 after a need for the provision of a total environmental monitoring service for Mining, Industry, & Government sectors was identified.
EnvironMine Data Services is in the unique position of being able to offer both manual sampling & automated monitoring services at the same cost-effective rate. This is not typical in the environmental field where automated monitoring services are often far more expensive due to the specialised nature of the work involved. We have developed the appropriate skills & experience to enable us to provide both types of
services from within the same organisation & with the same cost structure. We are therefore
able to pass on this benefit in the form of cost savings to our clients without compromising on
service quality. An added benefit of a total monitoring service to the client is simplified contractor management. Save time & resources by avoiding the need to manage multiple contracts
when one company is able to provide all of your environmental monitoring needs.

Orr has been involved in the environmental field since
1982 when he began as an Engineering Assistant (Hydrology)
in Wellington New Zealand. Emigrating to Australia in
1987 he became a Hydrographer with Ecowise Environmental
(then known as the ACTEW Hydrographic Section). Since
that time he has been involved in a diverse range of
environmental monitoring projects & has worked in most
States & Territories around Australia, Papua New Guinea,

skills & knowledge base that now enables him to establish
a total environmental monitoring service under the banner
of EnvironMine Data Services.
