The work involved removing contaminated soil, disposing of it properly and then covering it with concrete pavement to reduce exposure to metals. Amsac’s general manager, Antonio Montenegro, explained that soil recovery was a challenge since they had to intervene in already inhabited areas and they had to do it in an innovative way, respecting the urban development of the area.
