Our Role
The main contractor, PJ Hegarty, appointed ByrneLooby to advise on the waste management of the excess soils generated from construction works, as data from previous site investigations were limited. ByrneLooby supervised the excavation of 21 trial pits from two different construction phases to analyse soil samples for waste classification and advised appropriate disposal at a suitable waste facility. Using Irish landfill acceptance and HazWasteOnline™ software criteria (Under EU legislation), the soil samples were classified as either hazardous or non-hazardous based on their chemical composition. Our team also produced excavation plans to enable the contractor to excavate soils without mixing various soil categories.
