MITIGATING RISKS TO ESTABLISH SAFER GROUND
UXO Watching brief
Our UXO Specialists work closely with excavation teams to monitor site activities and manage potential UXO risks. They are trained to identify suspected ordnance, assess hazards and implement appropriate control measures if encountered.
UXO Watching Brief
Where excavation works are planned in areas with potential UXO risk, a UXO Watching Brief provides a safe and proportionate mitigation solution.
Our UXO Specialists deliver site-specific awareness briefings to ensure all personnel understand the risks, recognition indicators, and the correct actions to take in the event of a suspected find. Excavator operators also receive a focused briefing on excavation methods and key indicators to look out for during works.
During operations, our specialists work alongside excavation teams, continuously monitoring activities and remaining ready to respond to any potential UXO encounter.
Where required, detection equipment such as magnetometers can be utilised to support search and clearance activities
