Overview
Each to their own: The trajectories of local large-scale landfills and their international counterparts.
Roslyn Florie-George, REMONDIS Australia
Details
REMONDIS’ landfill portfolio (locally and internationally) has experienced substantial change and faced challenges over the past two decades. The differences between the regulatory environments and performance criteria that govern REMONDIS’ landfills across the world are significant.
REMONDIS is responsible for the management of two of Australia’s largest landfills: Mugga Lane Landfill in the ACT and Swanbank Landfill in Queensland, in addition to numerous international landfills.
In the ACT, Mugga Lane Landfill was the first landfill in Australia to transition to a KPI based contract in 2016. The contract seeks to deliver value for money to the ACT Government as REMONDIS is financially penalised or rewarded based on quantifiable KPIs each month e.g. compaction rates and the number of complaints received.
To the north, Swanbank Landfill celebrates its 20th anniversary servicing the south-east Queensland region. The anniversary provides an opportunity to document the site’s growth over the past two decades and to explore opportunities for the site’s future.
REMONDIS’ presentation will compare the different trajectories and development of these two key large-scale Australian landfills against REMONDIS International’s experience and observations in Europe.
