Aecom engaged Liberty Industrial for the decommissioning, demolition and remediation of the Caltex service station in Moora, Western Australia. The scope of work includes the retail showroom, workshop, canopy, lighting fixtures, signage, fuel bowsers and three underground storage tanks, concrete anchors and footings, underground pipes, concrete and bitumen hard standing and pathways. As part of the decommissioning process, all petroleum storage tanks have undergone a thorough cleaning process, with all demolition waste and contaminated materials disposed to the Shire of Moora in accordance with the regulatory requirements.
Robust solutions

- We prepared a robust traffic management plan to guide the movements of all heavy vehicles during excavation and transporting materials off-site, which monitored the ground speed of our mobile plant equipment to minimise generating dust.
- During the project, our team implemented stringent Erosion and Sediment (ERSED) and Environmental Controls to protect our surrounding community.
- Asbestos air monitoring was conducted throughout the project, measuring air quality during demolition, disposal and remediation to ensure a safe working environment.
Exceptional outcomes
