Tighes Hill Ausgrid Electrical Substation Soil Remediation
Ryno’s Group safely removed 200 tonnes of asbestos-contaminated soil at an Ausgrid substation in Tighes Hill, completing the project in stages due to adverse weather.
PRIORITISING SAFETY IN EVERY PROJECT.
While Ryno's Group regularly delivers complex remediation projects across high-risk infrastructure environments, safety remains our highest priority on every job. The removal of non-friable asbestos-contaminated soil from an active electrical substation required careful planning, strict compliance controls, and continuous asbestos air monitoring throughout the works. Despite challenging weather conditions, our team safely completed the project across two stages while maintaining full environmental and safety compliance, with independent hygienist clearances achieved upon completion. Like this client, you too, can do it right with Ryno’s.
Ryno’s delivered a controlled and compliant asbestos contaminated soil remediation project at an Ausgrid electrical substation in Tighes Hill, NSW.
Despite adverse weather conditions, the project was completed safely and efficiently across two stages, ensuring minimal disruption while maintaining strict environmental and safety standards.
The Project
Ryno’s Group was engaged by Ausgrid to remediate non-friable asbestos-contaminated soil at their electrical substation in Tighes Hill, NSW in July 2025.
The project involved the excavation, removal, and disposal of approximately 200 tonnes of contaminated soil, requiring careful planning and strict compliance with NSW safety regulations.
Due to adverse weather conditions, works were completed over two separate stages, ensuring safe site conditions were maintained throughout. While a project of this size would typically be completed within a single day, staging allowed for continued adherence to safety and environmental controls.
Our team utilised:
A 12-tonne excavator for controlled excavation
Truck and dog trailers equipped with “sealed bins” for efficient and safe transport and disposal of contaminated material
Coordinated logistics to ensure compliant handling and disposal at approved facilities
Continuous asbestos air monitoring throughout the duration of the project
The Outcome
Through careful staging and effective site management, Ryno’s successfully delivered:
200 tonnes of asbestos-contaminated soil safely removed
Project completed across two stages due to weather, without compromising safety
Safe excavation, transport, and disposal of all hazardous material
Continuous asbestos air monitoring maintained throughout the works
Full clearance certificates issued by independent hygienists
Full compliance with all environmental and regulatory requirements
Zero safety incidents
The site was remediated to a safe and compliant condition, ensuring ongoing operational safety for critical infrastructure.

"Had a great experience with Rynos, they handled demolition/asbestos removal for us during a bathroom renovation.
Super switched on and knowledgeable, they have plenty of knowledge and advice to share on the renovation journey as an added bonus.
Will not be contacting anyone else when it comes time for the next stage of the reno!"
