Measures must be sustainable in the long-term. Challenges include erosion control, exploring sustainable vegetation, management of gas emissions, restricting infiltration, management of surface run-off and investigating potential after-use opportunities.

Closure design must take into account the correct capping layers, leachate seepage control measures, storm water control measures and vegetation to ensure a sustainable closure solution.

At Jones & Wagener we have developed rehabilitation design tools and methodologies that optimise the design of the final post rehabilitation landforms taking construction costs and environmental impacts into account.

Services include:

• Design of capping barrier system
• Storm water management
• Final landform design
• Design of appropriate capping system
• Design of gas management
