Project Summary –

35,000 m3 of material was imported to the site as Waste Derived Fill (WDF). Due to elevated metals the soil was destined for landfill unless an audit was conducted to approve its disposal in a nearby quarry.

Outcome & Highlights –

Potential acid sulfate soils (PASS) material was identified and subsequently removed from the site with the remaining material validated.

AEA reviewed and endorsed the use of the material, undertook site inspections of both the source and receiving sites and completed the Site Contamination Audit Report (SCAR) which determined no site contamination was present and the site was suitable for its intended use.
