1.1 Kenep Consultancy & Services Sdn. Bhd and KenEp Resources
Kenep Consultancy & Services Sdn. Bhd (KCS) is a subsidiary of KenEp
Resource (Asia) Sdn. Bhd. (KR). KR is divided into three branches in
Malaysia, which distributes in Kuala Lumpur, Perak and Penang. Main
headquarter of KR is located in Perak branch.
KCS is an environmental consultancy firm, in which it is formerly known as
EIA department in KR. KR is established in 2003; meanwhile KCS is
separated and established in 2011. KCS has significant experience in
contributing to and managing many complex environmental assessments
for a variety of projects including quarry and mining consultancy services,
mineral exploration services, slope modelling, blasting design and
explosive magazine design, waste management, and others. Their
services include:

Besides, Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE), which has the
same formula as USLE, but has several improvements in determining
factors, is also applied in soil erosion modelling. These include some new
and revised iso-erodent maps, a time-varying approach for soil erodibility
factor, a sub-factor approach for evaluating the cover-management factor,
a new equation to reflect slope length and steepness, and new
conservation-practice values (Renard et al., 1997), as shown in equation
below.

The Modified Universal Soil Loss Equation (MUSLE) is the most frequently
used equations in sediment yield estimation. It was introduced by Williams
(1975) to calculate sediment yields of a catchment as a result of a specific
storm event. This empirical relationship is expressed by the following
equation for individual storm events:
Y = 89.6(VQp)

Before an EIA report writing, I was advised to review and revise the
previous approved EIA reports in the bookshelf as shown in Figure 7. This
is because KCS has its own format on EIA writing. The chapters involved in
an EIA report include declaration of the EIA team formation, description of

A social impact assessment survey was conducted by a survey team of 6
members in Manjung, Perak on the first day 13 th August 2015 (Thursday,
from 4.00 pm to 7.00 pm) and 14th August 2015 (Friday, from 9.30 am to
6.00 pm). This assessment was conducted to review respective local
