Metropolitan Bus Depots – Environmental Compliance and Investigations

Practical environmental investigations and compliance audits across four Melbourne bus depots established a defensible baseline, identified localised hydrocarbon impacts near refuelling areas, confirmed no landfill‑gas risk from adjacent closed tips, and delivered reporting and management measures to meet Victorian regulatory expectations.

Landfill Gas Assessment, Bus Depot, Melbourne West

Landfill gas monitoring at an operating bus depot in Melbourne's western suburbs

Targeted landfill gas and groundwater assessment at an operating bus depot adjacent to two closed municipal landfills in Melbourne’s western suburbs. No methane detected and EPA Victoria action levels not exceeded. Planning condition satisfied with no further LFG controls recommended.

Baseline Environmental Condition Investigation – Western Melbourne Bus Depot

iEnvi completed a Baseline Environmental Condition Investigation (BECI) at an established western Melbourne bus depot to meet Department of Transport & Planning requirements. Targeted soil and groundwater testing (10 soil bores and monitoring wells) found no significant contamination; a Fuel System Operating Plan (FSOP) was recommended and reporting provided regulator‑defensible documentation under Victoria’s Environment Protection Act 2017.
