Soil Remediation

Soil remediation of asbestos and other hazardous materials is a critical process aimed at protecting human health and the environment.

At GMA, we undertake significant projects involving the remediation of large volumes of asbestos-contaminated soil. These projects require meticulous planning and execution to ensure the safety of everyone involved.

Effective communication is crucial in any construction or remediation project, especially when dealing with asbestos-contaminated soil. Key stakeholders, including the client, regulatory agencies, and other onsite crews, must be kept informed and involved throughout the process. This ensures that everyone is aligned, working towards the same goal, and maintaining safety at all times.

Safety is our top priority at all our sites, where multiple teams from various companies often work simultaneously. GMA plays a vital role in managing site safety, holding regular safety meetings, daily pre-start meetings, and collaborating with dedicated health and safety representatives and EHS hygiene companies to ensure compliance with proper procedures.

Managing large-scale remediation projects requires substantial resources and expertise. We operate multiple screening plants, loaders, excavators, dump trucks, and other heavy machinery. Our asbestos removal team consists of trained Class A removalists with extensive experience. We collaborate with other companies managing different project elements, ensuring a comprehensive approach to remediation.

Once the contaminated soil has been screened and remediated, it can often be reused onsite as clean fill. This involves retesting the soil to ensure it meets the appropriate standards for reuse. By safely and effectively remediating contaminated soil, we contribute to a cleaner, safer environment for the communities we serve.

Contaminated Water

Removing pollutants and creating natural filtration systems.

Earthworks play a crucial role in the remediation of contaminated water by facilitating the restoration and enhancement of water quality. This process involves the strategic excavation and reshaping of land to manage and direct water flow, remove pollutants, and create natural filtration systems. For instance, constructing wetlands or retention basins can trap sediments and contaminants, allowing for the natural breakdown and removal of harmful substances.

Additionally, earthworks can involve the installation of barriers or diversion channels to prevent further contamination and protect clean water sources. By employing these techniques, GMA ensures that contaminated water is effectively treated and restored, contributing to a healthier and safer environment for surrounding communities.

Correct landscaping techniques, such as planting native vegetation and stabilising soil, further aid in preventing erosion and maintaining water purity. Learn more about what we do at GMA Property.

Decommissioning

Preparing the site for deconstruction, managing debris, and ensuring proper disposal of hazardous materials.

Decommissioning projects often require extensive earthworks to safely dismantle and remove structures, such as buildings, bridges, and industrial facilities. Earthworks play a pivotal role in this process by preparing the site for deconstruction, managing debris, and ensuring proper disposal of hazardous materials. Excavation and grading are essential to create safe access routes and staging areas for heavy machinery.

Additionally, earthworks help stabilize the ground, prevent erosion, and control dust during demolition activities. By implementing these earthworks techniques, GMA ensures that decommissioning projects are conducted efficiently, safely, and with minimal environmental impact, paving the way for future redevelopment or natural restoration of the site.
