Welcome to CleanUp 2013, the 5th International Contaminated Site Remediation Conference – Australia's premier conference for the contaminated site and remediation industry.

CleanUp is moving

CleanUp 2013 is moving to Melbourne! This change in venue constitutes the next stage in the conference’s extraordinary growth after four successful events in Adelaide. CleanUp 2013 will be held at the Crown Melbourne on 15-18 September – please keep an eye on the website for registration and accommodation details.

What's new?

The conference themes have been finalised and can be viewed here.

Late abstracts - The Organising committee are happy to receive abstracts past the advertised deadline; however, preference for oral presentations will be given to those abstracts received by the submission closing date. The online abstract submission page, on the conference web site, will remain open to allow for late abstract submissions.
