Construction Of Landfill Site Project Summary
|
Construction Quality Assurance (CQA)
REC provide a CQA service to clients ensuring
that all construction activities relating to
the engineering of landfill basal, drainage
layers, caps and sidewalls are constructed in
accordance with an Environment Agency agreed
plan. The construction of these layers is
overseen by experienced engineers by the use
of non destructive field techniques and by the
use of laboratory measurements.
Fate and transport modelling is
sometimes used to assess the off site
migration of List 1 and List 2 substances
emanating from the base or sidewalls of any
landfill.
Environmental Monitoring
REC are well versed in the monitoring of
landfill gases leachates noise, dust and
odours as part of the conditions relating to
the operation of a site. Together with it’s
sister company (SAL Ltd) an MCERTS and UKAS
accredited laboratory, REC are able to provide
a one stop solution to the monitoring of the
impact of a landfill site. By using the
integrated laboratory and consultancy services
the client can be assured of high quality data
reinforced by extensive laboratory check
protocols.
Environmental Modelling
REC has extensive experience of the
application of computer modelling for the
determination of environmental impact of
landfill operations on groundwater resources
and human health. LANDSIM and GasSim are
routinely used as part of the assessment of
the impact of new facilities (and existing
sites) on the environment. Software such as
GasSim are used to model the migration of
trace landfill gases to offsite receptors such
as domestic properties.
