Waste Management and Resource Recovery

Smarter waste management starts with clear advice, regulatory compliance, and a focus on reuse.

Waste Management

  • Waste Classification

    We identify the right classification for your waste to ensure compliant disposal and unlock cost-effective reuse options. Our assessments reduce risk, simplify approvals, and support smarter, more sustainable waste decisions.

  • Excavated Natural Material (ENM)

    We verify ENM compliance to support construction reuse, reduce disposal costs, and meet EPA and planning requirements. Our assessments provide defensible evidence and fast turnaround — so your project stays on track.

  • Virgin Excavated Natural Material (VENM)

    We confirm VENM status through detailed classification against environmental standards. Whether for stockpile validation or site clearance, we help you demonstrate compliance and support responsible land management.

  • Resource Recovery Orders and Exemptions

    We support clients in securing Resource Recovery Orders and Exemptions to enable lawful, sustainable reuse of materials. Our insight helps you reduce waste, lower costs, and meet circular economy goals with confidence.

  • Acid Sulfate Soils

    We assess and manage acid sulfate soils to prevent environmental harm and ensure regulatory compliance. From risk screening to detailed assessment, our solutions help protect land use, water quality, and approvals.
