Reclaim, remediate, become more resilient
Our experience with closure—whether environmental, regulatory, economic, or social—influences our approach. That’s why we consider closure at every stage of the mine development, design, and operation. We provide you with walk-away solutions and physical and chemical stability that lead to peace of mind. We also understand the mine closure process may also include monitoring and have first-hand experience with long-term performance of closure designs.
We take a holistic, multidisciplinary and integrated approach to site characterization and design to develop solutions that effectively address the diverse aspects of mine closure.
Streamlining the reclamation process
By using historical regional and site data to target site characterization efforts, we are able to identify data gaps and avoid duplicate data collection. We address immediate site threats with early or interim actions, using proven and accepted technologies in reclamation design and construction. By developing long-term, low-maintenance closure solutions, we minimize agency review time.Understanding and respecting nearby communities
Our team provides on-going communications and community involvement, using local resources and expertise whenever possible. The preservation and protection of historic and cultural resources is a critical part of site characterization and closure planning. Read MoreTransforming assets, one mine at a time
