Case Studies

Landfill Rehabilitation and Redevelopment

Core Environmental Projects were initially engaged to prepare a concept gas collection and interception design based on existing landfill gas investigations and risk assessments. Early in the review, Core identified several areas of opportunity where the landfill gas risks could be downgraded via detailed landfill gas investigation to support the completion of a quantitative landfill gas risk assessment.
