BUSINESS CHALLENGE

A PMO client was engaged by the government to begin debris removal along major stretches of the Coldwater and Nicola rivers that were deposited during the 2021 BC flooding event. In addition, damaged bridges required demolition and removal. Major First Nations stakeholders and contractors also played a major role in the cleanup project. Hazardous materials as well as working-in-water present major risks to be mitigated in collaboration with PMO.

‍

BENEFITS & VALUE

PMO was able to mobilize quickly to the work site and participate in site assessments via helicopter. A project risk assessment, safety plan and review of contractor safety management systems was thoroughly completed.
