Contaminated Site Assessment and Planning Workshop
7 - 9 September 2010

Registrations have now closed for this event.

In partnership with leading contaminated land industry professionals, ARIC is coordinating a 3 day Contaminated Site Assessment and Planning short course, to be held in Sydney from 7 - 9 September 2010. The course will provide participants with a grounding in the concepts and tools currently used in assessing environmental contamination. Participants will also gain an understanding of the protocols, methodologies and processes used in the assessment process, in addition to planning issues associated with the implementation of remediation strategies.

The target audience for this workshop is environmental managers and officers who are dealing with the ongoing management and questions surrounding contaminated sites; those people who need to respond to environmental consultants regarding contaminated land reports; recent graduates who have joined environmental consulting firms and looking to further their understanding of the industry; and environmental scientists, engineers, and consultants looking to transfer their skills and experience to the field of contaminated sites. It is not expected that the attendees will be trained to undertake field work; rather, they will be provided with the skills and understanding needed to assess and respond to  contaminated site project proposals, reports and other submissions from consultants.

The course will include three days of interactive education presentations, supported by prior reading material. The training will cover fundamental steps in contaminated site assessment in accordance with current industry best practice, guidelines and standards. The workshop will involve theory, practice, site visits and case studies.
