Project criteria

Please give a physical description of the project, the location, the owner, engineer, contractor, and date completed, as well as a description of why the project is being nominated.
Projects will be judged on; innovation in concept, novelty of technology, environmental benefit, and occupational health and safety benefit, as well as overall presentation.
Projects of the year will be automatically nominated for the ISTT Awards, which will be presented at the Rio International No-Dig 2012.

You can nominate an individual who has made major and sustained contributions to the trenchless industry in any area of activity within the industry. The Award recognises a contribution over and above the call of duty. It does not recognise contributions to a specific company; rather to the whole industry.
Young Person of the Year
This award also recognises major contributions to the industry, but the nominee must be under 40 as at 3 October 2011.
