Closure & rehabilitation landforms
Develop geotechnical inputs to a closure strategy that considers long-term landform performance. Assess geometry, material behaviour, drainage interfaces and the evidence needed to evaluate closure options and ongoing monitoring.

The engagement
What the work
can involve.
We tailor the scope to the decision you need to make, the available information and the project stage.
- 01
Agree closure objectives, proposed land use, knowledge gaps and the interfaces with the environmental and closure teams.
- 02
Scope landform stability, settlement and seepage assessments for relevant long-term conditions.
- 03
Compare geometry and material options alongside specialist cover, erosion, water-management and geochemical inputs.
- 04
Define construction verification and post-closure monitoring questions within the geotechnical scope.
Agreeing responsibilities
Geotechnical studies form part of a wider closure programme. Environmental acceptance, rehabilitation outcomes and relinquishment are separate matters requiring the relevant specialists and authorities.
The output
Defined work.
Useful deliverables.
- Geotechnical closure design basis
- Landform options and scoped technical assessments
- Drawing, material and construction inputs
- Residual uncertainty and monitoring recommendations
What to bring to the first discussion
Closure objectives, facility records, material characterisation, proposed landforms, environmental studies and applicable commitments.
You can start with an outline of the information you have. We will agree the document list and transfer method before you send confidential material.
What information should I prepare?
Closure objectives, facility records, material characterisation, proposed landforms, environmental studies and applicable commitments. You can begin with a short summary and a list of the documents available.
How will the work be priced?
The proposal is based on the agreed tasks, available information, deliverables, site requirements and review effort. Formal appointments and specialist inputs are scoped separately. No price is confirmed by this website.
Can I enquire with incomplete information?
Yes. Tell us the decision or outcome you need and what is still unknown. We can discuss the information and professional input needed before the scope and timing are agreed.
Working together
A scope you can review.
The proposal identifies tasks, deliverables, inputs, dependencies, exclusions and pricing. Open questions remain visible so the next decision is informed.
