Australia
Fluor recently completed a project with a significant focus on the preservation of the ecological and cultural environment in the Pilbara, one of Australia’s most striking and unspoiled natural wilderness areas and home to numerous significant Aboriginal sites. Heritage surveys were conducted as part of the project to identify ethnographic, archaeological, and other significant sites in consultation with traditional land owners, setting a new benchmark for the management of indigenous heritage issues.
