Soil Science
Our team of professional Soil Scientists employ methods and data analysis techniques specifically tailored to soil and closure related projects.
Our people are industry leaders in land resource assessment, with a focus on providing a holistic approach to soil taxonomy, land capability, and rehabilitation, and agricultural land suitability classification.
Overview
We have a proven successful mix of practical industry experience, environmental impact assessment capability, project management skills, and regulatory knowledge. This includes providing valuable baseline information to better assess options for site management. Our focus on waste soil assessment & characterisation, and geochemistry integration into rehabilitation plans, creates a successful holistic view on the approach to land and soil management for clients.
Rehabilitation skills include erosion / sediment control, soil quality, landform design and cover design, to apply practical soil conservation solutions.
These aspects are integrated into decommissioning and closure plans as well as providing estimates for financial provisions. This holistic approach helps close the loop for an end to end or turnkey land management.
