At 8:15 in the morning, the "Greenland Engineering Consulting Co., Ltd." On the 28th floor of the CBD office building is already busy. The sound of keyboard tapping and the hum of the printer are intertwined into a unique rhythm in the workplace. Zhang Simode stood in front of his desk, his fingertips quickly ran across the project schedule on the tablet, his brows slightly furrowed but not panicked - as the company's youngest environmental impact assessment engineer and procurement manager, this high-pressure state has long been his daily routine.
"Manager, the Chengxi Textile Factory's supplementary environmental impact assessment report is stuck at the third-party testing agency." Assistant Xiao Lin walked quickly with a stack of documents in his arms, his tone was anxious, "They said that unknown contaminants were found during groundwater sampling in the factory area, which is beyond the scope of conventional testing. Additional equipment and consumables are needed, and the cost will increase by 30%. They also said that the results may not be available within a week."
Zhang Simode took the report, his eyes fell on the words "unidentified contaminants", and he tapped his fingertips on the edge of the table. The Chengxi Textile Factory project is a key old factory renovation project promoted by the city. Party A requires that environmental impact assessment approval be obtained before the end of the month, otherwise it will affect subsequent land listings. There are only ten days left before the deadline.
