Join us for an exclusive industry event featuring two leading experts in vapour and gas assessment and mitigation. Our guest speakers will share their insights on common challenges and best practice when it comes to vapour sampling and risk assessment, as well as designing and constructing effective mitigation systems when unacceptable risks are identified.
Meet the Speakers:
Mark Chapman– Technical Director, AECOM (Adelaide)
With over 26 years of experience in contaminated site assessment, Mark will delve into vapour sampling and risk assessment, addressing key questions such as:
James Lucas –Technical Director, Core Environmental Projects (Melbourne)
With over 15 years of contaminated land experience across the UK and Australia, James will focus on vapour and gas risk mitigation system design and construction, tackling critical considerations including:
