CAPPED LANDFILL

Extension to existing suspended indoor sport complex on a historical landfill site.

The Project is situated on a capped landfill generating high concentrations of methane and carbon dioxide. There was no ground gas monitoring infrastructure and building and cap ‘as constructed’ drawings were not available. 

Solution: We completed a human health and environmental risk assessment of landfill gas and waste. This required the installation of three new gas monitoring bores and regular subsurface and surface ground gas monitoring. To support construction and future site operations we identified and advised on design and construction of gas protection and completed a waste classification for disposal and reuse.

Outcome: Our investigation achieved a thorough understanding of the Site’s ground gas regime, confirming proposed design and gas protection treatment. Our work supports future approvals and permits necessary to progress the project.
