Service 05 · Remediation
Many Sydney sites carry a legacy from past use: old service stations, factories, unknown fill or asbestos in soil. 22 Civil delivers the civil works for remediation across Sydney and NSW, working to your Remediation Action Plan alongside your environmental consultant.

Unexpected finds
On a 22 Civil site we stop work in the affected area, secure it, notify you and your consultant, and follow the unexpected finds protocol. Because we hold the capability, remediation starts as soon as the approach is agreed.
Dust suppression, odour management, air monitoring, stormwater controls, decontamination areas and the right PPE, all within ISO 14001, 45001 and 9001 certified systems.
Your consultant prepares the Remediation Action Plan, which may need auditor or council review. We carry out the physical works and adjust excavation boundaries as sampling results come in.
Remediation is mostly heavy civil work. One crew with earthworks, asbestos and demolition in house takes the site to a validated, clean platform.
FAQ
No. Remediation Action Plans are prepared by qualified environmental consultants. We carry out the remediation works set out in the plan and can recommend consultants if needed.
The material is classified under NSW EPA waste classification guidelines, then transported to a facility licensed to accept that waste type, with disposal dockets provided.
Sometimes. On site treatment or capping may be possible if it is approved in the Remediation Action Plan. Off site disposal is more common for smaller sites.
Work stops in that area, it is secured, and removal proceeds under the appropriate asbestos licence with monitoring and clearance.
It depends on the type and extent of contamination. After reviewing the Remediation Action Plan we provide a programme.
