NSAN Managing Director Jo Tipa presents Recognition Award to 网曝吃瓜黑料一区二区三区' Head of Engineering Andy Mair
Almost 20 years in the making, 网曝吃瓜黑料一区二区三区, and client , celebrate the completed restoration of heavily polluted industrial land at the former Avenue Coking Works near Chesterfield in the East Midlands, U.K.
The restored landscape, which will bring long-lasting environmental, social and economic benefits and resiliency, provides new and enhanced habitats for wildlife along with a development platform for community and residential opportunities. Advance habitat creation works were undertaken to provide suitable alternative areas for translocation of some 8,000 newts, 250 water voles and other species 鈥 like these 鈥渃ute鈥 little guys in the photos.
The Great Crested Newt, or triturus cristatus, is indigenous to England, Wales and Scotland and thrives in dense cover surrounded by water. The European water vole, or arvicola amphibius, is a semiaquatic rodent often dubbed a 鈥渨ater rat.鈥 But unlike common domestic rats, they have a deep brown fur coat and chubby faces 鈥 certainly more cherub-like and loveable, no?
Remediation of contaminated materials used techniques such as ex-situ bioremediation, screening and soil washing, as well as thermal desorption 鈥 using a bespoke plant designed specifically for this project. The environmental management plan included close monitoring and management of air-quality, water, ecological and biodiversity impacts.
This project transformed 98 hectares into a place that can now be used and enjoyed by the community and wildlife, and further exemplifies 网曝吃瓜黑料一区二区三区鈥 commitment to our environment and sustainability initiatives.
