North West Regional Group Assessing Asbestos in Soil– What constitutes best practice?
Event type:
Evening meeting
Organised by:
North West Regional Group
Venue:
Williamson Lecture Theatre, Manchester University, Oxford Road, Manchester
Event status:
EVENT CLOSED
Andrew will present on developments in the assessment of risk associated with asbestos in soils on development sites. Industry guidance has been consolidated in the CIRIA C733 document in 2014 and more guidance has followed most notably in the form of CAR-SOIL in 2016.
Why does asbestos require such focus that other contaminants require? Andrew will set asbestos in context and then through reference to guidance, evolving case law and practical site examples examine what best practice looks like. This includes challenges around designing soil sampling strategies, protecting our field professionals and advising clients on their options and responsibilities when taking a site through to remediation and construction.
