R.I.E.S are at present working with Global Certification Services to
have their engineers trained to audit to ISO 14001 standard. It is anticipated
that this will be done before the end of November.
In addition the company is pursuing the possibility of assessments of the ACORN scheme which
is perhaps more user friendly than 14001. ACORN gives companies
the opportunity to work on a graded scheme to reach the level that best suits their business
