INTERVENTION PERIOD
2016 – 2017
Executive project phases:
– Completion of asbestos remediation of internal components of warehouses designated “B” and “C”
– Removal and final disposal of asbestos-cement slabs
– Removal of sewage lines in open areas
– Remediation of other isolated buildings
– Removal and final disposal of production residues stocked nearby warehouse C
– Remediation and removal of silo and pipes located above and near warehouse B
Challenges met
– The warehouses were very rundown; therefore, management of contaminated machinery and the presence of production residues was vital to project success
– Management of roofing and side insulating construction materials made of fiber-cement slabs.
– Removal of a dense network of underground sewage lines, made of asbestos-containing materials (around 3,250 m total).
– Management of wastewater containing asbestos in the underground tanks.
SIGNIFICANT ELEMENTS IN THE DESIGN OF THE REMEDIATION PLAN
Planning upgrades in order to ensure correct health and safety operational conditions:
– Training for all operators involved in the operations
– Delivery of copies of the site layout to drivers with all internal safe routes clearly marked
– Setting up of a system of audible and visual warning devices
– Creation of Cloud space for sign-in sheets and work records.
– Remote monitoring system installation to assess the containment levels
– Remote monitoring system installation to verify the functioning of extractors
– Environmental monitoring near sensitive receptors – SEM analysis
– Setting up of a site laboratory for conduction of phase-contrast optical microscopy
– Design and implementation of the communication plan with the neighboring townspeople and other stakeholders according to AA1000SES (2011) standards
