Brenacon were engaged by [name withheld] to undertake the remediation of an asbestos contaminated site in order to facilitate the removal of the Prohibition Notice imposed by SafeWork in Beecroft NSW. The contamination was caused by a poorly undertaken asbestos inspection and subsequent removal works performed prior to the planned demolition. This was further complicated by an unexpected find of contaminated soil having been used as backfill behind retaining walls and beneath concrete slabs.
Project: Beecroft Prohibition Notice Clean Up
With the entire site being poorly managed and numerous complaints from neighbouring properties SafeWork NSW issued a prohibition notice preventing further demolition and construction without first remediating the asbestos contamination.
Brenacon were required to utilise the clients’ resources wherever possible to mitigate costs, obtain all necessary permits and approvals to commence the works, undertake site establishment, supply of labour, consumables and equipment, asbestos management, and asbestos remediation whilst mitigating asbestos fibre release and obtaining a clearance certificate.
Our swift action allowed our team to achieve the remediation promptly to have the prohibition notice lifted to allow our client to recommence their works.
