Hazardous Waste Cleanup and Remediation
Environmental remediation is the removal of pollution or contaminants from soil and water, including groundwater and surface water. Hazardous materials requiring hazmat cleanup include asbestos, certain chemicals, lead, and biological waste. In the event of a hazmat event, you may be required to hire a professional hazmat cleanup technician to safely remove the hazardous materials in compliance with OSHA and health regulations. Hazardous waste site remediation typically addresses soils and groundwater. It can, however, include wastes, surface water, sediment, sludges, bedrock, buildings, and other man-made substances. The hazardous constituents may be organic, inorganic, or radioactive.
What The Process Looks Like
Hazardous waste can be dangerous and costly to remediate without proper knowledge and industry expertise. The solution required can range from using Hazardous Waste safe barrels for small amounts of waste to large industrial vacuum trucks for large amounts of waste.
When This Service Is Needed
Any time a site uses, creates, or spills a product that is harmful for wildlife, humans, and the environment, this service is necessary. Government regulations dictate the requirements for what and how hazardous materials must be remediated.
