In collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency, this discussion explores how to incorporate sustainable outcomes into the planning phases of environmental remediation and decommissioning projects.
“Sustainable Remediation and Decommissioning in Practice” will explore how to incorporate sustainable outcomes into the planning phases of remediation and decommissioning projects, how these outcomes are measured and vary across the breadth of activities, and specific approaches and initiatives that can provide confidence in reaching sustainable goals.
Much emphasis is placed on the need for remediation and decommissioning projects to be sustainable, with a general understanding that this means the outcomes of such projects balance environmental, economic, and social considerations. Conceptually, the linkages between these considerations are well-defined and broadly endorsed. In practice, however, achieving sustainable solutions can be a significant challenge—particularly when measured across the many discrete activities that may be undertaken across typically protracted project life cycles. In addition, identifying and implementing sustainable solutions often requires extensive engagement across all stakeholder groups and resolution of sometimes competing objectives and priorities.
This seminar on Tuesday, November 5, is hosted by RemPlex in collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Network of Environmental Remediation and NORM Management (ENVIRONET).
Registration on Zoom is free and open to the public.
