Scope of course

How to avoid water pollution from construction sites.

Background

Environmental issues arise throughout a construction project. People working in construction
have to be aware of their environmental obligations and the benefits that good practice
will bring at every stage from the initial feasibility studies to design, construction planning
and actual works. Mismanagement of water on construction sites can lead not only to
environmental damage but to serious legal and economic consequences.

Outline

By attending this training day attendees will be able to implement more effective water
management techniques on construction sites which will improve both environmental and
economic performance of projects.

The course covers both standard and linear construction sites and delegates will get copies
of the relevant CIRIA publications free of charge as part of the course. The training day will
focus on developing people's skills and understanding through interactive exercises,
delegates will leave with a clear plan of how to reduce and remove water pollution from
construction sites. Delegates also get the opportunity to get personal advice and training
from a leading UK expert in the field.
