Our team has turn-key capability in the design and construction phases of environmental remediation projects. Our full-service capabilities ensure streamlined project results as all phases of a project are delivered in house, allowing for a seamless transition from phase to phase until project completion. We believe that this model provides our client with cost and time efficient solutions as:

  • project management of all stages is centralised and delivered by one project manager, thus eliminating duplicate costs
  • the requirement for outsourcing work or partial scopes of work to consultants is removed, leading to less overheads and less delays
  • fluid flow of information and communications between key team members leads to rapid response and eliminating the potential for confusion
  • reduced reporting costs
  • no conflict of interest between the traditional ‘consulting’ and ‘contracting’ phases and people
  • one team, working together and always focussing on the ultimate required outcome.

Under this project management structure, Aussie Enviro can:

  • undertake the site investigations and prepare the necessary Contaminated Land Investigation
  • documents in preparation for a remediation project
  • prepare the Remediation Options Feasibility Studies and Remediation Plans
  • execute the remediation works and undertake the necessary remediation validation sampling
  • prepare the necessary validation reports for submission to a Contaminated Land Auditor (CLA) and the Department of Environment and Science (DES)
  • prepare the draft Site Management Plans (SMPs), if required

Our Contaminated Land Practitioner and Suitably Qualified Person (SQP), Willy Van Vaerenbergh, provides over 30 years’ experience and has acted on numerous significant remediation projects with a focus on facilitating and informed, practical and efficient approach to managing contamination.

Caustic Bladder contamination services

Aussie Enviro has gained extensive experience with working at and around caustic bladders, through projects it has delivered for major mining corporations in North Queensland.

Our recent project experience includes:

  • Drilling and sampling of soil bores within the base and around the bladders
  • Installation and sampling of groundwater monitoring wells
  • Development of remediation plans
  • Execution and supervision of approved remediation works
  • Preparation of environmental reports for submission to the Department of Environment and Science

Appropriate remediation methods are based on an initial preliminary assessment to ensure the best methods are implemented for a quick and indicative assessment and in compliance with regulated standards.

Underground Storage Tank (UST) Removal

A common occurrence in petroleum industries is the requirement to remove underground storage infrastructure such as tanks, fuel pipelines, bowsers and vents. Inadequate monitoring or maintenance can cause UST’s to leak, releasing petrol, diesel and other hydrocarbons into the soil and groundwater, which can impact neighbouring properties, residents and businesses.

The removal of UST’s, particularly once abandoned, will eliminate any risk of environmental impacts and liability for these systems.

Our experienced project team have the ability to remove UST’s at sites all across Queensland, providing the necessary equipment and specialist tools to ensure safe removal and off-site disposal.

Working closely with our in-house Contaminated Land Practitioner, rest assured that our team will deliver the best service possible ensuring effective implementation of day-to-day project management, cost controls methods and compliance with regulatory requirements.

Geotechnical Investigation

Test Pit Services

Aussie Enviro provides experienced and certified excavator operators that enable geotechnical engineers to assess, sample and characterise the features of soil and rock samples of a specific property.

The investigation works are typically carried out using our excavator with small-medium sized buckets, backfilled and track rolled for compaction. This process allows for geotechnical engineers to perform in-situ field testing, collect samples at different depths and submit for laboratory analysis.

Cone Penetration Testing (CPT Testing)

Our 14 tonne excavator is equipped to perform cone penetration testing (CPT) to support geotechnical engineers in their investigations.

The benefit of using our excavator for CPT testing is that our equipment is track mounted which allows for access to areas where drill rigs are unable to gain access. Once in position, our excavator is placed on a portable mount and utilises the hydraulic power of the machine to activate the probe carriage to depths in excess of 25m. This allow geotechnical engineers to obtain subsurface information for soil characterisation, soil strength and other properties.

Plate Load Testing

Plate load test is a simple process for obtaining reliable information of the surface soil stiffness and likely load/settlements characteristics for shallow footings.

The undercarriage of our excavator is used to secure the steel plate in place for geotechnical engineers to obtain data on the surface soil foundation and avoid unnecessary additional costs where the potential for collapse is possible.

Pavement Borehole Investigation

Aussie Enviro undertake various pavement investigations for local government bodies, civil construction companies and regional road programs.

Our excavators are equipped with auger attachments to allow for pavement rehabilitation works, including stabilised and bitumen pavements. Following collection of samples for laboratory analysis, pavement boreholes are backfilled with excavated material, drainage gravel and cold-mix asphalt to minimise material waste.

Cultural Heritage Test Pit Investigation

An area of our expertise that diversifies us from our competitors is the ability to provide equipment and skilled operators to perform services in high impact activity or cultural heritage sensitive areas.

Working with qualified Archaeologists, excavation works are typically carried out using our 6 tonne excavator and small-large sized buckets with blades covering the digging teeth i.e. mud buckets ensuring appropriate methodology is followed to achieve the most effective results.

Excavated material is sieved through a portable trailer mounted shaker grid system, with all identified or suspected cultural material retained, bagged and labelled. All test pits are backfilled immediately using material excavated from the pits to prevent possible sediment contamination.

Customer Testimonials

Customer Testimonials

Read all of our feeback

  • Would 100% recommend Aussie Enviro to anyone looking for an earth moving company. They are friendly, helpful and easy to deal with.

    Their equipment is well maintained and the operator we used was professional, very experienced and nothing but accommodating. I will definitely use them again.

    R Mccaul - Pipeline technician

  • This job went very well. The guys had all their paperwork in order and as a result of this there were no problems with permitting.

    The work was carried out in a very orderly fashion and any changes/problems were discussed with the operator on shift.

    The work is of a very high standard and I personally believe that the work carried out at Cook should set the benchmark for other tankfarm jobs.

    D Volker - Operator, Santos Ltd

  • I would like to pass on my praise for your guys who installed the concrete canvas … Their workmanship was second to none and I was really impressed by their “can do” attitude.

    We had a good crack whilst dealing with the obstacles on site and I would have no reservations in recommending your company to future clients.

    T Jackson - Sales Director, Burdens Australia

  • We have had a long and mutual relationship with Aussies and am happy to say they have always been professional and responsive when I have called on their services – thank you.

    N Farrel - Coordinator Pipeline Compliance

  • My involvement with the Aussie team commenced in 2008 in my capacity as Environmental Project Manager for ExxonMobil. Aussie performed all remediation earthworks on a 20ha former fuel terminal and lubricant plant including the excavation, treatment and reinstatement of approximately 65,000m3 of hydrocarbon impacted soil, and general site management including waste disposal, fencing and barricading, pond construction and decommissioning, road maintenance, stormwater management and erosion control, and reseeding.
