How a lean, risk‑focused contaminated‑land approach gave a community sports club a construction‑ready landfill gas assessment and a practical Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) so the clubhouse could be built safely, on time and on budget.
You see lots of building developments going up, and large construction sites.
iEnvi completed a rapid preliminary site investigation (PSI), soil sampling (60 samples) and geotechnical site classification for a 75‑lot low‑density residential proposal on former citrus orchard land in Griffith LGA. Soils met NSW Excavated Natural Material criteria and the site was classified as moderately reactive (20–40 mm movement potential).
iEnvi completed two fast-turnaround Preliminary Site Investigations (PSI) near Adelaide, SA. One site showed significant risk from past loam mining and fill and requires a larger investigation, remediation and auditor sign-off; the second was suitable for a 50‑lot subdivision after limited sampling.
Desktop (Phase 1) preliminary site investigation for a proposed child care centre in Sydney’s Northern Beaches. The desktop study identified low contamination potential from on‑site history but recommended targeted soil sampling and an asbestos hazardous‑materials inspection before council proceeds with a development application.
Case study: PSI, combined geotechnical and environmental drilling, 30 soil bores to 5 m, 15 primary soil samples. Delivered reporting for planning permit in ~2 weeks; cost reported just over $10,000. Practical takeaways for developers on compliance, demolition hazards and cost efficiencies.
