PRELIMINARY AND FINAL DETAILED PROJECT FOR THE RECLAMATION OF THE GR80 SITE LOCATED AT FONTALCINALDO IN THE MUNICIPALITY OF MASSA MARITTIMA (GR)
Description of the work
The work was carried out through the following phases:- Drafting of the environmental “Characterisation Plan” of the polluted GR80 site,
- Implementation of the environmental surveys
- Drawing up of the “Preliminary Reclamation Project”.
- Submission of the “Additional investigations report and preliminary project for the reclamation of the GR80 site”; the document identified the level of the relative health and safety risk in defining the project scenario considered most suitable for the environmental reclamation of the area
- Preparation of the final reclamation and remediation plan for the “GR80 Ritorto – Fontalcinaldo” site project.
Articulation of the activities,
The project foresees the reclamation of a former pyrite mine.
The area was subdivided into three operational reclamation lots. In the vicinity of the “main body of the mine” area (Lot 1) the demolition decommissioned mine facilities and implementation of safety measures were foreseen, in addition to consolidation of pyrite landfills and the realization of temporary storage areas. In the “Old placements” area (Lot 2) implementation of safety measures is foreseen in the mining decantation and accommodation tanks deposited along the Ritorto torrent in the stretch between the main body of the mine (Pozzo Italia) and the so-called Case Dolaghe Site. Lastly, in the “New placements” area (Lot 3) the recuperation of mining landfill in the stretch between the so-called Case Dolaghe site and the point where the torrent joins the Fosso di Valle were foreseen. In this phase the construction of a new multiphase phytopurification plant is planned for the treatment of the Ritorto torrent water.During the execution of the reclamation works and at the end of same, appropriate environmental monitoring was programmed to assess the effectiveness of the ecosystem restoration interventions in the area.
During the reclamation work ambiente s.c. assumed the role of site engineer and safety coordinator in the design and implementation phase (an additional responsibility to that described therein). In parallel environmental monitoring services in the pre-operations and work-in-progress phases were entrusted to ambiente s.c.
