Free CPD webinar: Be Rain Ready®, plan your site water management
Be Rain Ready®: Plan your site water management before the weather turns
Wet weather can stop work and put your discharge permit at risk. On one £56m flood scheme, a Rain Ready® system cut suspended solids by up to 99% and is estimated to save the contractor £50k to £128k over 12 months.
In this free one-hour webinar, we will show you how to plan water treatment before you need it, so heavy rain doesn’t stop work or put a watercourse at risk.
You’ll learn:
– Why planning water management at pre-construction stage saves time and money.
– How a Rain Ready® system works, with a Pipe Reactor, Gel Flocculant, Silt Capture Channels and settlement ponds working together.
– What a settlement test tells you about your site’s soil.
– Explore our case studies to illustrate results in practice.
There will be a live Q&A at the end, so bring your questions.
Who it’s for: Site managers, project managers, environmental advisors and engineers in construction and utilities.
Speaker: Leela O’dea, the founder and Technical Director & Co-founder of Frog Environmental. An ecologist with years of experience solving water quality problems on live sites.

Bubble Curtain at Banff Marina
Frog Environmental has supplied a permanent Bubble Curtain at Banff Marina in Scotland. It is designed to reduce the amount of seaweed, silt and debris flowing into the marina, whilst allowing boats to move freely. The system was installed by Aberdeenshire Council’s Harbour Authority, and this article explains how it is being tested.
