Townsville, QLD caps its Hervey Range landfill with first-in-Australia bituminous geomembrane use

Townsville, QLD Bituminous Geomembrane Landfill Cap First

In Progress

The synthetic material prevents rainwater from entering capped portions of the landfill. Townsville officials selected BGM lining to trap methane for burn-offs that reduce council emissions. This eight-month project placed soil and mulch over the liner to create a more visually appealing space. The city anticipates a 30-year management timeline for the property that includes emissions tracking and beautification efforts.
