30 November 2017
Focus area: Water
Program stream: Sustainability
Project number: 2017-1035
Poorly managed stormwater can cause problems on and off site through erosion, flooding and the transportation of nutrients, sediments and chemical pollutants to waterways.
This project is a review of how Australian meat processing companies are managing stormwater runoff; what technologies are available to the industry that are not commonly used and what is currently considered best practice management to minimize environmental impacts.
