When undertaking excavation works contaminated soils can present significant risk and additional costs without correct classification and identification of contaminants. SRC Group’s state-of-the-art soil testing facilities enables us to offer you full classification of your waste soils to produce an effective materials management plan (MMP). This detailed testing process gives you peace of mind that you can proceed with your project without any unexpected costs, ensuring all duty of care is met and any waste materials are disposed of safely and legally at one of our licenced facilities.
Without the correct testing and classification of soils, waste cannot be managed effectively. This poses huge risks to project budgets and the possibility of prosecution.
2015 saw the launch of the WM3 waste classification guide. This comprehensive document covers the classification of all waste types and helps waste producers understand how best to handle and dispose of waste. At SRC Group we offer soil consultancy and testing that aligns with WM3, ensuring your compliance and minimising risk.
On-site rapid measure testing involves the real-time analysis of soil directly at the sampling location. This quick and portable testing method provides immediate results, facilitating prompt decision-making in various applications, such as construction, environmental monitoring, or emergency response situations.
Also known as basic characterisation testing, these tests assess the presence and concentration of heavy metals and hydrocarbons in soils, and enables us to classify your waste in line with WM3. At SRC Group, we offer a comprehensive sampling plan bespoke to your project and waste volumes, followed by testing, full classification and licenced removal to ensure compliance with regulatory standards and guiding remediation efforts to protect ecosystems and human health.
WAC testing is conducted to determine if a particular waste material meets the criteria for safe disposal in a landfill. It involves assessing the leaching potential of contaminants from the waste, ensuring that landfills accept only materials for which they are licenced to.
A common misconception is that WAC Testing alone is enough to classify and remove waste from site. SRC Group can provide you with the correct testing and classification to get your waste moving.
This testing determines the quantity and type of Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) in your waste soils. Asbestos quantification is crucial for assessing the risk of asbestos exposure, guiding safe removal procedures, and ensuring compliance with regulations to protect both workers and the public.
SRC Group can offer you a seamless service from testing and classification to disposal, all handled in house saving you resources and providing peace of mind. Contact one of our dedicated team members to manage your enquiry.
