About Site Remediation
There are a number of materials that can cause a need for remediation, including by-products from manufacturing and industrial waste or high levels of chemical concentration from any number of sources. Typical Site Remediation is usually caused from one of the EPA Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) categories of pollutants, which include ignitable, corrosive, reactive or toxic substances.
To determine whether a site requires clean-up, soil, water and material samples are tested to determine the level of contamination. Some Site Remediation projects are performed because the site is a hazard to people in nearby areas. Sites contaminated by chemical wastes may produce toxic fumes that can travel for miles, or can leak into groundwater and contaminate local water supplies.Cleaning up the site may not always make it safe to live on, but it may be cleaned enough for use as industrial/commercial property or help to minimize danger to nearby residents.
