Site interim and end states

Background

We are interested in new technologies and techniques that would help us:

define and optimise site interim and end states, for example, factors influencing decision making;
address barriers to onsite and in situ disposal of waste; and
address the management of residual land contamination.
We are particularly interested in new technologies and techniques that would improve our ability to predict changes in facilities and remotely monitor facilities, ground and groundwater over long periods of time.
