In June 2013, the City of Vancouver retained Binnie to provide professional project management, including administration and project control services for the Phase 3 West Closure of the Vancouver Landfill.
Binnie was responsible for managing the design and construction of Phase 3 of the progressive closure and installation of gas systems at the Vancouver Landfill. The landfill, which is owned and operated by the City of Vancouver, is located in Delta and has multiple stakeholders involved including Metro Vancouver, the Ministry of Environment, the Burns Bog Conservation Society and the Corporation of Delta. Responsibilities included management of the overall project activities and requirements, such as budget, schedule, design, risk assessment/management/mitigation, and change control process. Binnie acted as the City’s representative and ensured that the City’s interests were properly addressed throughout the life of the project.
