“All That’s Green Is Not Clean”Lessons from the Risk Based Management of a Gasworks Clean-up
|
PDF 644 K |
Located on the western extension of Collins Street in the Victoria Harbour Precinct of Melbourne Docklands development, a clean-up notice was served by EPA on the site in 1994. Since the start of clean-up in 1999, about 270,000m3 of material contaminated mainly with aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons, has been excavated and treated. The majority was removed from the site (about 330,000 tonnes to landfill) and a large proportion re-used to fill excavations. The site was planned for high density residential, commercial or public open space use.
