With the US construction and waste industries
continuing to grow it is critical that these sectors take care of their workers,
neighbours and the environment.
With this in mind Casella Solutions, industry leading experts in providing effective dust and noise monitoring
solutions has developed the Boundary Guardian; a comprehensive web based remote
monitoring system for dust and noise exposures suitable for use at construction
and demolition recycling sites.
The Boundary
Guardian monitors for noise, dust and vibration levels around your site and it
also alerts companies to hazardous levels before they are the subject of
complaints. Companies have to comply with planning permission on dust and noise
emissions but also be socially responsible for their businesses and be good
neighbours to the surrounding communities.
As the demand for construction and demolition recycling services
increases, companies need to ensure that they are taking into account all
possible factors affecting the surrounding areas.
With heavy fines
per noise violation a possibility, preventing noise and dust from exceeding
agreed emissions levels directly affects the profitability of a company.
Therefore, implementing a reliable and effective noise and dust monitoring
programme is essential to local authority and neighbourhood relations as well
as profitability.
Casella’s Boundary
Guardian enables site operators to conduct web-based monitoring of noise and/or
dust emissions to ensure compliance with regulatory limits. This prevents any
adverse effects to people and communities within the local area. It sends out
text and email alerts when noise or dust levels are approaching ‘trigger’
levels, enabling site operators to manage site activity to ensure noise and
dust impact to those in the area is minimised at all time. In addition, the Boundary
Guardian ‘pushes’ data automatically to a dedicated website that uses a private
login and is accessible in real-time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a
year. In the event that a report is required for compliance reasons, one can be
readily produced quickly and easily.
Once installed, the
Boundary Guardian ensures compliance with regulatory limits. This is done via a simple installation
service. The unit automatically starts
up and begins receiving data as soon as it is fixed to a wall and supplied with
power.
There is no other
system currently available on the market that offers the same levels of
functionality and performance. Commenting on the Boundary Guardian, Neal Hill,
Product Manager at Casella Solutions said, “At Casella Solutions we are
dedicated to providing data through our systems that leads to positive outcomes
and changes for the global workforce. The Boundary Guardian has provided that
solution as it encompasses noise, dust and vibration monitoring, ultimately
helping to monitor high risk occupational sectors including the construction
and demolition recycling industry, enhancing the long term health and quality
of life, not only for a vast workforce, but also improving a company’s social
responsibility for the area surrounding its work site. ”
