The award and prize recognise the life of a man devoted to the forest industry, both in Australia and internationally.
Awarded for the first time to joint winners, the award was won by Nick Clarke and Thirukumaran Jallendran (Thiru), formerly sustainability managers for the Sydney Metro Northwest project delivering the Operations, Trains and Stations infrastructure.
The prize recognises the significant contribution of both men in achieving what is the largest complex infrastructure project successfully achieving the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) and Responsible Wood (RW) project certification.
