From historic uranium waste to mine closure data software, Phillip Crouse shares what he’s seeing after 35 years in the industry. He also talks about how he got started in mine closure with a background in soil mechanics, geoenvironmental work, and solid waste management. He anticipates where the industry is headed—with more closure and reclamation planning happening at the beginning of projects, instead of the end. Phillip is Stantec’s Mine Closure, Reclamation, and Asset Transformation Technical Practice Lead, based out of Denver Colorado.
