SURE
Successful Restoration and Rehabilitation Accompanying Infrastructural Interventions
Basic information
-
Brief description of the consultancy firmThe construction of ski slopes and road embankments and the establishment of excavation areas causes environmental damage to many regions of Europe. The general objective of SURE is to put basic strategies into practise that guarantee ecological and sustainable restoration or rehabilitation of such sites. Sustainable rehabilitation and restoration of ski slopes, road embankments and opencast mining areas should lead to an appealing landscape with satisfying ecological value, especially through enhancing quality of life for people living in the concerned regions. Pilot projects reveal best practice methods of rehabilitation and restoration. The research conducted in the pilot area focuses on indicators that allow the expected increase of ecological value to be measured through ecologically-sound rehabilitation metrics. Through constant monitoring of economic and ecological parameters, the data gained from the pilot projects will convince local decision-makers to put the improved know-how into practice. To ensure that territorial operators and technicians of land rehabilitation receive up-to-date information, training activities will be organised according to the three main objectives: - Restoration of endangered and destroyed high altitude slopes in mountainous regions, - Rehabilitation of degraded embankments and slopes caused by improvements in infrastructure measurements, - Restoration of areas devastated by coal and other ores excavation.
