       Notes - general: Abstract:This three-year research project was
                        concerned with assessing the potential for
                        contamination resulting from the use of alternative
                        aggregates in road construction and bulk fill.  The
                        approach was to define and verify a logical
                        materialassessment procedure focusing on a tiered
                        series of material characterisation and leaching
                        tests.  The material assessment procedure was used to
                        investigate how the in-situ conditions of usage
                        influence the leaching process and the nature of any
                        impact.  In this report, a material assessment
                        strategy is defined along with recommendations for
                        binder treatments based on material properties anusage
                        scenario.
