Underground Construction Technology International Conference & Exhibition

Looming federal carbon legislation is challenging cities and municipalities across North America to consider carbon loading as an integral element of their construction business. The good news for both owners and contractors is that by using trenchless technology, carbon emissions can be reduced by as much as 85 percent. The NASTT Carbon Calculator, developed by the NASTT-BC (British Columbia) Chapter, allows users to estimate the reduction in Carbon Dioxide emissions when trenchless is used vs. open-cut methods. David O'Sullivan will present on the benefits of the NASTT Carbon Calculator. Following his presentation, NASTT panelists will discuss how we can be pro-active in reducing carbon footprint using trenchless technologies and invite input and questions from audience members.
