3000 acres! Wont be long before you cannot farm or even see the great scenery of Ynys mon has to offer,will comp[letely be covered. Not against solar, but using good farming land is just wrong! It should be on every public building, every empty brownfield site and covered car parks first! The image the bbc uses is just wrong, it wont look like that!! Jobs, construction jobs (low paid and very few) permanent local jobs, zero! Ynys mon, only has one main industry left, and thats tourism, some seem to be dead set on removing that as well!! https://lnkd.in/eSpSVfa7

🤩 Our plan is WORKING and Teesside is on the up! 💪 Jobs are vital to tackling inequality and deprivation. If we want our area to succeed we need to do it with investment and jobs for local people 🤝 … and that’s exactly what we’re doing. Unemployment in Redcar and Cleveland is DOWN by 7% when compared to 2010. The work we’re doing at Teesworks and the Teesside Freeport to secure investment and create good-quality jobs for local people is transforming our area. Not only are we creating hundreds of construction jobs, but we’re seeing hundreds more full time operational roles now being created at: 💨 SeAH Wind 🏭 Net Zero Teesside ♻️ Circular Fuels ✈️ Willis Aviation With the return of steelmaking at British Steel, new firms investing at Wilton and existing business in Redcar and Cleveland growing, we’re seeing the rewards of our efforts over the last few years. 👉 This is a real indicator that our plan for Teesside, Darlington and Hartlepool is working, but there’s still much more to do. We need to keep going to secure more investment and create more good-quality jobs for local people and make sure Teesworks becomes the new ICI - providing opportunities and careers for our community for decades to come 👊

#teamtuesday goes out to Marcel Virella, Public Utility Manager. He’s been with Plateau for almost 5 years. Marcel works in the safety department. Whenever sites are being planned, he identifies utilities and any conflicts involved in the process before digging can occur. He also trains and advises members of the team on safety around utilities and write protocols on best practices in the avoidance of utility damages. In critical utility crossings, he will stay on-site to ensure best practices are adhered to. When asked what his favorite thing about Plateau and his role, Marcel said “First, I would have to say that the teamwork here is the best I’ve seen since I’ve been in my profession. I also love the management team. They respect my experience and input which makes me feel like I’m valued. I also love the fact that they give you every tool you need to get the job done! That means a lot to me.” His advice to those getting into the industry or interested in starting a career at Plateau Excavation “Come on aboard!! It’s tough but rewarding work. If you like working with your hands, teamwork, and seeing a vision come to fruition, this is the place to be. Plateau didn’t become the best by accident.” Thank you Marcel for all you do at Plateau! Your hard work and dedication doesn’t go unnoticed.

Last week I had the opportunity to spend the day with some of the Land Consents team, looking at how we shape our future. A snapshot of some of the questions we asked ourselves: What is our utopia i.e. our vision? Using SWOT what is holding us back from achieving our vision? What are the objectives that will help us achieve our vision? How do we achieve our objectives… what’s the plan? What are our methods for evaluating the objectives and the plan? In asking these questions we were able to develop a coherent and achievable way forward. After days like this you can’t help but leave the room motivated and excited for what’s next. #Savills #LandConsents #Infrastructure #Utilities #Strategy #StrategicPlanning #Change #Leadership #Growth

Jobsite Trailer Talk: The Struggles and Benefits of C&D Waste Diversion. This Talk was given in the Colorado mountains and a major concern that came up in the meeting is space - a lot of mountain jobsites lose 20-30% of jobsite space once winter comes, and I can relate - I lose about 15% of driveway space during winter months. Recovering resources can already be a challenge as well as addressing jobsite space, but the loss of additional space can create additional struggles. Do you think there are any other supplementary struggles for C&D waste diversion and resource recovery? #construction #demolition #webuildco #agccolorado #agc #wastediversion #deconstruction #buildbetter

Today’s #plateaupeople feature goes out to Bernardo Gomora, General Superintendent, who has been with Plateau for over 20 years. His role involves managing different crews at multiple complex job sites simultaneously across the state. His favorite project is Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta on North Druid Hills. “I am incredibly grateful to have been a small part of creating a building where families will get the much needed help they need.” His favorite aspect about his job is getting able to be a part of a team that takes something old and turns it into something new. “It never ceases to amaze me how we can take a lot filled with dirt, shrubs, and buildings, that are on their way to collapsing, and turn it into something new, and useful that positively impacts the community.” The advice he gave for someone entering this industry: “The biggest advice I can give someone is to be willing to make the necessary sacrifices. I love working in construction. It has been my life for over two decades now, but I won’t sugarcoat it – the hours are long, the weather can be brutal, and the stress is incomprehensible at times; however, seeing how much your potential takes you, and the fruit of your labor come into fruition right before your eyes, makes it incredibly worthwhile.” We appreciate your loyalty and hard work, Bernardo. Thank you for all you do!

The #ExideResidentialCleanup Project resumed field mobilization & work with a new contractor (Parsons Transportation Group) on Feb. 5, 2024. It's one of the largest cleanup projects in the USA - requiring cooperation among 200+ Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), contractor & subcontractor personnel daily. Staff are divided into teams that fulfill specific project requirements; one of these teams, known as a #CleanupTaskForce, is shown in this image. 20 cleanup task force teams are in the field each day, with each team working at one residential property at a time. At each property, these task force teams excavate lead-impacted soils, load them for transport to a licensed /approved landfill, backfill the property with clean soils, & install landscaping selected by the owner from among the project options offered by #DTSC. . . . #Exide #CleanUpCalifornia #ExideCleanup #EastLosAngeles #EastLA #BellCA #CommerceCA #HuntingtonParkCA #BoyleHeights #MaywoodCA #VernonCA
